Remove /bin/sh from bash RPROVIDES as this has a side-effect which confuses rpm package manager when also busybox provides /bin/sh and base-files depend on /bin/sh . The problem is broken down below.
First, bash depends on base-files and bash pkg_postinst must run after base-files was installed, because it requires /etc/shells provided by base-files to be in place. Second, base-files depends on /bin/sh, which is provided by either bash or busybox in this case. This is the actual problem here, if bash is selected as /bin/sh provider, then there is cyclic dependency between bash and base-files, and that confuses dnf which may install the packages in the wrong order, bash first and base-files second . To make this worse, if busybox is also /bin/sh provider, it can and does happen that some systems pick busybox as the /bin/sh provider, while others pick bash as the /bin/sh provider, and that cyclic dependency does not always appear. Attempt to break this dependency, drop RPROVIDES /bin/sh from bash recipe to always force base-files to pick /bin/sh from busybox .
