I can install softether-vpn and libcpufeatures together just fine

There is a common file in those two packages.

$ apt-file search '/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/include/cpu_features/cpu_features_macros.h'
libcpufeatures: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/include/cpu_features/cpu_features_macros.h
softether-vpn: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/include/cpu_features/cpu_features_macros.h

Try apt-file update

I was using termux x86_64 docker image to test.

[johndebia2022]

The conflicts are on [arm, i686, x64_86] archs only for [cpu_features_macros.h]

[truboxl]

Zzz you should have filled termux-info

I am looking into the mariadb and groonga conflict and found three types of solution. 1. use groonga dependency in mariadb instead of default vendored one 2. move the groonga directory to $PREFIX/share/doc 3. move docs to separate package (termux does not do this). Which option should be applied here?

[truboxl]

Use vendor if possible
Then prefer the files to be removed if it's not essential
Then rename the offending files or move directory if it's not possible

Might as well investigate why aarch64 does not have the issue
