Fixed In Version: Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Some packages in the Optional repositories on RHN have multilib file conflicts. Consequently, these packages cannot have both the primary architecture (e.g. x86_64) and secondary architecture (e.g. i686) copies of the package installed on the same machine simultaneously. To work around this, install only one copy of the conflicting package.

Comment 5 Alexander Todorov 2010-10-20 11:02:24 UTC 
WebServer (x86_64) is also affected. 

Martin and Jan,
can you check if we see this issue on ppc64 and s390x? I suspect the answer will be yes.


For the conflicting documentation files see bug #449731 (RHEL4) - it requested that rpm ignores file conflicts under /usr/share/doc to work around several multilib conflicts on ia64.

Update summary - ppc64 and s390x are also affected.
Comment 9 seth vidal 2010-10-20 13:24:13 UTC 
If these pkgs have conflicting files it is a packaging bug, not a yum bug.

Open these bugs with the relevant pkgs.

Dennis,
individual bugs have been filed for different components. No work required here. We can leave this open for tracking or close it as not a bug if you wish.
Comment 16 Panu Matilainen 2010-12-02 21:02:42 UTC 
Happened to stumble on this largely accidentally... 

The "permit doc conflicts" hack is not coming back in rpm, it was only done for RHEL 4 + 5 because mid-release rpm rebase was much stricter than the one those releases started with, and fixing all the packages was simply not an option.

Many of the above conflicts are on Doxygen-generated developer documentation. For those, perhaps the cleanest option is to split the documentation into a noarch foo-apidocs sub-package. Doxygen-generated documentation usually only differs between architectures due to timestamps added into (html) content and slight image generation differences which make no difference for documentation usability, and making them noarch (which wasn't possible in older RHEL-versions) allows the same package to be shared across all architectures, potentially saving diskspace and bandwidth.
Comment 17 Leonard den Ottolander 2010-12-02 23:12:34 UTC 
Could it be that there is a difference in the value of
%_binary_filedigest_algorithm
in the different build environments? That could cause rpm not to recognize the identical files as being identical as the checksums cannot be matched.
Comment 18 Leonard den Ottolander 2010-12-03 00:48:43 UTC 
You can disregard my previous remark. Although the errors are similar this is an entirely different issue. Sorry for the noise.

Cause
  Some packages in the Optional repositories on RHN have multilib file conflicts.

Consequence
  Packages that have multilib file conflicts cannot have both the primary architecture (e.g. x86_64) and secondary architecture (e.g. i686) copies on the package installed on the same machine simultaneously.

Workaround
  To work around this, install only one copy of the conflicting package.

Result
  This may limit the ability to run certain secondary architecture applications or to build against secondary architecture libraries.

Comment 30 Suzanne Logcher 2012-05-18 20:46:04 UTC 
This request was not resolved in time for the current release.
Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in
the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Comment 34 Lubos Kocman 2014-09-17 11:26:42 UTC 
Hello

I'm closing this obsolete tracker bug. Please deal with issues on the individual component level if necessary. There is quite a lot of these in my queue.

Thanks for understanding

Lubos
