This is a problem with libhif and undefined symbols => reassigning libhif

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2015-01-23 12:49:24 UTC

As far as I can tell, that symbol is supposed to come from librepo, seems to be a regression in 
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2015-0896/librepo-1.7.12-1.fc21

ldd /lib64/libhif.so.1
reports no missing symbols with librepo-1.7.11 installed.

Reassigning (again, fun).
