Hi,

Our local school is running a highly customized Xfce desktop based on CentOS 7. We're using quite many EPEL packages.
The upgrade from CentOS 7.4 to 7.5 has been a bit bumpy for desktop users. Here's what happens when I try to install the Gthumb image viewer:
--> Résolution des dépendances terminée Erreur : Paquet : gthumb-3.3.4-1.el7.x86_64 (epel) Requiert : libexiv2.so.12()(64bit) Vous pouvez essayer d'utiliser --skip-broken pour contourner le problème
The problem has already been reported, and there's a detailed discussion about it here:

It seems like the only workaround is to rebuild the old exiv2-libs package and build a corresponding compat- package.
My question to you here: is there any way you provide this package? Because in the current state, the gthumb package you provide is unusable.
There's a bug open to resolve this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1578517
The gthumb package just needs to be rebuilt against the updated exiv libraries. A scratch build succeeds, so this should be a relatively easy fix and will hopefully get cleared up soon.
Here's a scratch build with the rpm release bumped in a way that it is newer than what's currently in EPEL-7 and older than the next build, in case you want to use it while waiting for an official rebuild.

(It should be finished in a few minutes.)

Cheers to you from the sunny west coast of Florida. :)
