Other Notes (IRC)

[10:28:48] <sendro> blah hi all, running fedora23 ; a glibc.i686 was required for dependency... installed it through yum now everything core dumps
[10:29:11] <sendro> strange thing is i did it yesterday on another machine at home and worked fine
[10:29:30] <sendro> not sure how to rescue my system, as chroot everything still core dumps
[10:29:40] <sendro> i removed glibc.i686 with rpm --root 
[10:29:46] <sendro> but still getting core dumps
[10:30:32] <sendro> i think might need to reinstall glibc 64 bit.... any thoughts :(


[10:48:18] <kk4ewt> sendro,  fpaste --sysinfo
[10:49:51] <sendro> thats really cool - http://paste.fedoraproject.org/350121/59903725
[10:53:55] <sendro> kk4ewt: this is what i installed - http://pastebin.com/wpizPkZV 
11:06:36] <sendro> i downgraded nss-softokn-freebl.x86_64 
[11:06:39] <sendro> everything works

To be more like what you did I removed glibc.i686 and repeated using yum and also okay.
Comment 2 Fedora Admin XMLRPC Client 2016-08-15 15:51:27 UTC 
This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.
Comment 3 Kai Engert (:kaie) (inactive account) 2016-11-18 13:11:42 UTC 
I don't know if the version you had mentioned had a bug that caused your issue.

I believe the most recent package versions we're shipping shouldn't crash, I assume many people have installed this combination of packages.

If you still can reproduce, please make another comment.
