why dnf wants to reinstall to same version ?

FC29. I have a server for video encoding. I use x264, which I keep updated to the most recent git packaaged in an rpm. rpm -q x264-libs x264-libs-0.157-0.20190331.fc29.x86_64 I then rebuild all the packages that depend on x264, including avidemux-libs. I just rebuild on my machine, without chaging the version, since the version hasn't changed, it's just linked to the new x264 version. rpm -q avidemux-libs avidemux-libs-2.7.3-1.fc29.x86_64 But dnf want to replace my rebuild version, with the version for the repo: dnf upgrade --refresh .............. Problem 1: package avidemux-libs-2.7.3-1.fc29.x86_64 requires libx264.so.155()(64bit), but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both x264-libs-0.155-2.20180806git0a84d98.fc29.x86_64 and x264-libs-0.157-0.20190331.fc29.x86_64 I don't want to bump the avidemux-libs version, since I want to know when a new one is available. I don't want to keep adding "-x avidemux.." Why does dnf want to replace the installed package ? How does it even know it's not the same package as the repo ? sean
