Description mo 2025-10-28 19:28:12 UTC
During a system upgrade from Fedora 42 to Fedora 43, the upgrade transaction fails when testing the offline stage. The error occurs because both the 32-bit (wine-core.i686) and 64-bit (wine-core.x86_64) packages attempt to install files into the same paths under /usr/lib/wine/i386-windows/ and /usr/lib64/wine/i386-windows/.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start with Fedora 42 (KDE edition) with Wine packages installed:
   wine-core.x86_64 and wine-core.i686
2. Run:
   sudo dnf system-upgrade download --releasever=43 --allowerasing --refresh
3. Observe the transaction failure during the “Testing offline transaction” phase.

Actual Results:
Upgrade process fails with file-ownership conflicts between i686 and x86_64 Wine packages.


Expected Results:
The multilib Wine packages should upgrade cleanly without conflicting file ownership.


Additional Information:
Workaround:
Removing all Wine packages before upgrading allows Fedora 43 to install successfully.
After completing the upgrade, reinstalling Wine on Fedora 43 works without issues.

Error output:
