Folks,
I upgraded to FC6 and are now having dependency problems with OpenOffice
upgrades. I don't know whether the upgrade FC6 caused this problem or
not. Messages (from yum, etc.) I get are:

I tried uninstalling OpenOffice (successful) and reinstalling OpenOffice
(unsuccessful). What is the problem? Thanks . . .
Are you on x86_64? FC6 has a native x86_64 version of openoffice, but
FC5 had an i386 version even on x86_64 installs.
See what you have:
$ rpm -qa --qf '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n' openoffice\*
If any i386 packages show up, you could try "yum remove"ing them and see
if that helps.
