Description Michal Jaegermann 2010-07-12 03:45:33 UTC
Description of problem:

With both x86_64 and i686 variants of libstdc++ installed an update attempt bumps into the following yum errors:

Transaction Check Error:
  file /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/__init__.pyc conflicts between attempted installs of libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.x86_64 and libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.i686
  file /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/__init__.pyo conflicts between attempted installs of libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.x86_64 and libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.i686
  file /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/__init__.pyc conflicts between attempted installs of libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.x86_64 and libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.i686
  file /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/__init__.pyo conflicts between attempted installs of libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.x86_64 and libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.i686
  file /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.pyc conflicts between attempted installs of libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.x86_64 and libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.i686
  file /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.pyo conflicts between attempted installs of libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.x86_64 and libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.i686

and that breaks the whole transaction which would include those packages. Getting around that is not easy.

Files in questions appear to be really different as after "forcing" the issue one sees from "rpm -V libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14.x86_64" the following:

..5......    /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/__init__.pyc
..5......    /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/__init__.pyo
..5......    /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/__init__.pyc
..5......    /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/__init__.pyo
..5......    /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.pyc
..5......    /usr/share/gcc-4.5.0/python/libstdcxx/v6/printers.pyo


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libstdc++-4.5.0-1.fc14
