Description Luke Schierer 2005-06-08 21:18:40 UTC

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050513 Galeon/1.3.21 (Debian package 1.3.21-1+gnome28+1)

Description of problem:
having just finished a FC3 install on an x86_64 system, I went to upgrade it with yum.  the following transaction check error occured.  using --exclude=perl let everything else update, but even then this transaction check occurs if I cease to use --exclude=perl.

Sorry about the inconvenience.  We made a mistake when shipping FC3.  perl is
not a multilib package.  The only way to fix this is to use "rpm -e perl".

Oops, I meant
rpm -e perl.i386
