[skipperTux]

• Etcher version: 1.5.73
• Operating system and architecture: Fedora 31 x86_64
• Image flashed: not applicable
• Do you see any meaningful error information in the DevTools? not applicable
• References: draw.io Desktop Issue 212, Unwanted directories added to RPM Issue 1503

Steps to Reproduce:

If you try to install balena-etcher-electron-1.5.73.x86_64.rpm when draw.io Desktop (rpm) is already installed on your system, you will get the following error message

Running transaction check
Transaction check succeeded.
Running transaction test
The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful transaction.
You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'.
Error: Transaction test error:

See also cross-reference Issue 212 at draw.io Desktop.

Current workaround:

Install at least one of those applications as AppImage.

Edit:

• Update reference from draw.io
• Update reference (thx @lurch)
