The problem here is that you're doing a split media upgrade, and each individual disc is its own transaction. We can determine conflicts within transactions, but not between different transactions. For various reasons, the fix here really needs to be that we merge all the discs into one big transaction so we can detect these and other errors. Luckily we already have a bug to track this issue. Aside from that, package conflicts are packaging bugs and need to be fixed in the packages themselves. There are simply too many situations where package conflicts result in the inability of the user (let alone a program) to make any correct decision to solve this via the UI. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 492629 *** |
