2006/3/1, Albert A. Modderkolk <mdd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>:
Sometime ago, when I tried to update everything, I got a similar or the
same error as today:
Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/man/man1/dvcont.1.gz from
install of libavc1394-0.5.1-0.2.fc4.rf conflicts with file from package
libavc1394-0.4.1-8
file /usr/bin/linkchecker from install of linkchecker-3.3-1.2.fc4.rf
conflicts with file from package linkchecker-3.3-1
I am running FC4 64-bit. What can I do to resolve this conflict?
Tia, Albert
Also for me (FC4 x86_64), sometime, the update in yum give similar errors. It seem to me a problem with the multiple arch package / lib installed. I've resolved, in my systems (and all your preferred disclaimer apply), removing all the conflicting packages with nodeps and allmatches, then the update install also the correct package/s
Please verify what you do, before using the yum -e --nodeps --allmatches ....
