mod_oauth2 3.3.1 does not install on fedora 37

[salpcnsi]

Tried to install mod_oauth2 3.3.1 using following command:
[root@localhost ~]# yum localinstall mod_oauth2-3.3.1-1.el9.x86_64.rpm
Last metadata expiration check: 2:35:50 ago on Mon 10 Jul 2023 02:21:27 PM EDT.
Error:
Problem: conflicting requests

• nothing provides libjansson.so.4(libjansson.so.4)(64bit) needed by mod_oauth2-3.3.1-1.el9.x86_64 from @commandline
  (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)

I do have libjansson.so.4 at /usr/lib64/libjansson.so.4 ( part of the jansson package).

why is this dependency failing?

Thanks.

where did you get libjansson from?

[salpcnsi]

From fedora:
dnf install jansson
rpm -qa | grep jansson
jansson-2.13.1-5.fc37.x86_64

salpekarg1@localhost ~]$ ls -l /usr/lib64/libjan*
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 20 Jul 21 2022 /usr/lib64/libjansson.so.4 -> libjansson.so.4.13.0
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 62168 Jul 21 2022 /usr/lib64/libjansson.so.4.13.0

it seems to be due to the differences between Fedora and RHEL; RockyLinux/CentOS and AlmaLinux should be more compatible with RHEL; alternatively you could try and ignore the failing dependency

Ok, will give that a try. Thanks.

Here is how I got this to work on Fedora 37:

For fedora 37:

dnf install curl hiredis jansson
dnf install cjose liboauth2 liboauth2-apache memcached libmemcached

wget https://github.com/OpenIDC/mod_oauth2/releases/download/v3.3.1/mod_oauth2-3.3.1-1.el9.x86_64.rpm

rpm --nodeps -ihv mod_oauth2-3.3.1-1.el9.x86_64.rpm

Notice --nodeps flag to ignore dependencies.
