ea-php8x dependency oddity

[RevivalTech]

Let me know if I missed a duplicate of this, or if this is normal haha.

Just went to reinstall ea-phps even though I use selector with alt-phps, for another thing I have running on server that is using ea-php, and noticed something that seems strange to me. Could be a misunderstanding on my part, anyone able to offer explanation, or is this is a bug:

installing ea-php80* shows --> Removing dependent packages:ea-php82-scldevel

installing ea-php81* shows --> Removing dependent packages:ea-php80-scldevel

and ea-php82* shows --> Removing dependent packages:ea-php81-scldevel

Shouldn't these all three be independent? like cross php version non dependent on other versions module?

Thank you in advance!

Indeed, that looks pretty strange.
I am not able to reproduce the issue on a test environment, played with ea-php80-scldevel-8.0.27-1.el7 package.

Please show the output of:

rpm -q --whatrequires ea-php80-scldevel

On my server it shows "no package requires ea-php80-scldevel".

Came back no packages require... Hmmmmmmm 🤔

And can you still reproduce the original issue?

Yea, still getting error, but this time it's worded as conflct, and just failes out install.
This is from dnf install ea-php82*
