See: $ rpm -qa|grep -iE "bluez\-util|pm\-util" bluez-utils-2.25-4 pm-utils-0.15-1 The bluez one is for bluetooth, I don't see how/why exactly it could conflict w/ pm-utils. Maybe download the .rpm and install it using --force (it would better to understand how they conflict, here I could install one after the other w/o conflict)? Or uninstall bluez-utils if you don't use bluetooth devices? BTW I just uninstalled it as I don't need bluething :-), also had to disable the call to `bluez-pin --dbus` present in the session settings (bluetooth service vanished too). Regards, -- wwp
