Updating _totem_ alone fails
Explicit dependency between the _totem_ and _gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free_ packages is missing. Consequently, when trying to update just the _totem_ package, the operation fails. To work around this problem, do not update the _totem_ package by itself and rely on the system update instead.

Description

The conflict is between 2 GStreamer packages, nothing to do with totem. How can I fix this? How can I say in the spec file of gstreamer1-plugins-good that when you install version X, it should also upgrade to at least version X of another package. I can't put a Requires there because the -bad-free package is optional. Ok it seems as more totem issue. Or to be more precise it should be fixed on totem site. The issue he is as far as I understand that if user update just totem than depsolver would be satisfied with gst1-plugins-bad-free and gst1-plugins-good stat are older than gst1 and gst1-plugins-base that will be available in rhel7.4. Yes for some weird reason user might only want to update totem and its deps. In case of whole gnome stack and other components that will be part of rhel7.4 release get updated everything will be fine. I think I need in the gstreamer1-plugins-bad-free spec:
Requires: gstreamer1-plugins-base%{?_isa} >= %{version}
I think that this would solve the current problem but not when, for example, a plugin got moved to -good.
Is there no way to say that *when* an optional package is installed, it should be at least X version?
*** Bug 1482962 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The same error occurs upgrading CentOS 7.3.1611 (Core) This happened to me on CentOS Linux 7 Kernel 3.10.0-514.26.2.el7.x86_64. I did a yum remove gstreamer1. Now my GUI is gone. Any help would be appreciated. Had the problem on CentOS as well. Solved it by removing totem, cheese and their dependendant packages totem-naultilus, totem-pl-parser as well as farstream and farstream02 and modules that depend on them such as cheese-libs, libpurple, telepathy-for-stream and empathy. You can verify these names by trying to delete totem, cheese and farstream which will fail because of the packages that use them (totem-nautilus, etc). Then I applied all of the updates to gnome (and everything else). Then I reinstalled totem, cheese, farstream and farstream02 and the higher level packages. That solved the problem. It is a bit of work but gets things back to normal with everything updated. The update of the kernel wiped out my Ethernet interface but that is another bug.
