Description Steve Grubb 2005-09-21 18:05:06 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050915 Fedora/1.5-0.5.0.beta1 Firefox/1.4

Description of problem:
When doing "yum update glibc-headers" yum fails resolving the dependencies.

Dep Number: 1/2
glibc-devel requires: glibc = 2.3.90-11
--> Processing Dependency: glibc = 2.3.90-11 for package: glibc-devel
Calling rpmdb.returnHeaderByTuple on glibc-devel.x86_64 0:2.3.90-11
Calling rpmdb.returnHeaderByTuple on glibc-devel.i386 0:2.3.90-11
Multiple Packages match. glibc-devel-2.3.90-11
   glibc-devel - 2.3.90-11.x86_64
   glibc-devel - 2.3.90-11.i386 already in ts u, skipping
Requiring package is installed: glibc-devel - 2.3.90-11.x86_64
Resolving for installed requiring package: glibc-devel - 2.3.90-11.x86_64
Resolving for requirement: glibc = 2.3.90-11
Potential Provider: glibc.i686 0:2.3.90-12


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-2.4.0-3.1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum update glibc-headers

Actual Results:  --> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: glibc = 2.3.90-11 for package: glibc-devel
--> Processing Dependency: glibc-headers = 2.3.90-11 for package: glibc-devel
--> Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes.
--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
--> Running transaction check
Error: Unable to satisfy dependencies
Error: Package glibc-devel needs glibc = 2.3.90-11, this is not available.
Error: Package glibc-devel needs glibc-headers = 2.3.90-11, this is not available.

Comment 2 Seth Vidal 2005-09-30 04:35:33 UTC 
1. Are you still seeting this problem? Was it just a temporary repository error?
2. if you're not seeing the problem - close the bug
3. if you are seeing the problem can you tell me if you get the same problem
when you run: yum update glibc*

thanks
Comment 3 Steve Grubb 2005-09-30 12:42:01 UTC 
1. yes this bug still exists.
3. Running "yum update glibc*" succeeds.
4. Since #3 succeeds, I had to find a new way to reproduce the problem. "yum
update cyrus-sasl-lib.i386" fails:

--> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait.
--> Running transaction check
Error: Missing Dependency: cyrus-sasl-lib = 2.1.21-4 is needed by package cyrus-sasl
Error: Unable to satisfy dependencies
Error: Package cyrus-sasl-md5 needs cyrus-sasl-lib = 2.1.21-4, this is not

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2006-04-19 20:07:10 UTC 
This was caused by repository weirdness and some change of the multilib set of
time in the devel tree
