Hello,
first of all sorry if this is not the appropriate place to report this.
The following update: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2016-5ceeaaa626
overwrites the speex package that is in the official RHEL/CentOS 7 media, making impossible to build against speex as the above update has an explicit conflict declared:
--> Processing Conflict: speexdsp-devel-1.2-0.9.rc3.el7.x86_64 conflicts speex-devel <= 1.2-0.21.rc1 --> Processing Conflict: speexdsp-1.2-0.9.rc3.el7.x86_64 conflicts speex <= 1.2-0.21.rc1
It's also even newer than what is on the RHEL 7.3 media. Please retire that package from EPEL, it's against the policy to overwrite packages.
Thanks & Regards, --Simone
To be more precise, the update replaces only the speexdsp part of the speex package:
$ rpm -qp --provides speex-devel-1.2-0.19.rc1.el7.x86_64.rpm warning: speex-devel-1.2-0.19.rc1.el7.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID f4a80eb5: NOKEY pkgconfig(speex) = 1.2rc1 pkgconfig(speexdsp) = 1.2rc1 speex-devel = 1.2-0.19.rc1.el7 speex-devel(x86-64) = 1.2-0.19.rc1.el7
Please file a bug on the speex package asking the maintainer to retire it. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=Fedora%20EPEL&version=epel7&component=speex
If they don't respond in a timely manner, please bring the issue up on the epel-devel list.
Thanks.
