Problem with vips-devel 8.15.0

[0e39bf7b]

Hello!

I'm trying to install vips-devel package on RHEL-based systems, but there is an issue.

Rocky 8:

[root@rocky1 ~]# dnf install vips-devel
Failed to set locale, defaulting to C.UTF-8

Error: 
 Problem: cannot install the best candidate for the job
  - nothing provides pkgconfig(cgif) >= 0.2.0 needed by vips-devel-8.15.0-1.el8.remi.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Error: 
 Problem: conflicting requests
  - nothing provides pkgconfig(cgif) >= 0.2.0 needed by vips-devel-8.14.5-1.el8.remi.x86_64

(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)

At the same time I have libcgif-0.3.2-1.el8.remi.x86_64 installed:

[root@rocky1 ~]# rpm -qa | grep libcgif
libcgif-0.3.2-1.el8.remi.x86_64

Oracle Linux 8:

  - nothing provides pkgconfig(libarchive) >= 3.0.0 needed by vips-devel-8.15.0-1.el8.remi.x86_64 from remi
  - nothing provides pkgconfig(libarchive) >= 3.0.0 needed by vips-devel-8.15.0-1.el8.remi.x86_64 from remi-safe

At the same time I have libarchive installed:

[root@ol1 ~]$ rpm -qa | grep libarchive
libarchive-3.3.3-5.el8.x86_64

What am I doing wrong?

Most people don't need "devel" packages, so nobody report about this

libcgif-devel was only in "remi" which is not enabled by default.
I've added it in "remi-safe" (for 8, already there for 9)

libarchive-devel is in CRB/PowerTools which is not enabled by default.
=> crb enable

It works! Thank you!
