-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonjour, There are some troubles if you have an x86_64 install mixed with i386 apps. I installed f8 x86_64 but for all sounds and videos, I installed i386 apps, for, according to my previous experience with fc6, you come accross a lot of problems if you install x86_64 video and sound apps. I had to remove some x86_64 packages, installed at the beginning, and replaced them by i386 ones. So far so good. But, if I update my system, x86_64 packages come back and upset the update: conflict between xxx new packcages (which I don't want) conflict with i386 already installed packages.... I can manage this up to a certain limit: I don't know to what extend the dependencies are and some packages accept to be installed twice: one version is x86_64, another one is i386. So, tonight, I came accross this problem: my favorite radio was not working and I did not know why.... I use mplayer to listen at it. The culprit was the update I have done this afternoon: pulse-audio was installed in both version: x86_64 and i386 and the system was blocked.... *Wishes*: is it possible to have two fully separate systems of updates for x86_64 system: today, running something like yum update do not prevent you from installing x86_64 package you don't want. I was thinking that the meaning of "update" option for yum was: it updates only the installed packages and do not installs new ones (except for dependencies). For the x86_64 arch., no packages pulse-audio* was installed, so why does yum want to install/update new/i386 packages with the wrong arch? Thank you for attention. - -- François Patte UFR de mathématiques et informatique Université Paris Descartes 45, rue des Saints Pères F-75270 Paris Cedex 06 Tél. +33 (0)1 44 55 35 61 http://www.math-info.univ-paris5.fr/~patte -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFHwesjdE6C2dhV2JURAuoqAKCBT0sGpesY4AivFvY2ZotjixTdKwCeKvgi XmQadM8YrsbJJ3Dvu+Hkfv0= =06Y2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
