Description Clyde E. Kunkel 2011-06-17 13:08:40 UTC
Description of problem:
yum --skip-broken update yields:

Error: Protected multilib versions: libreport-2.0.2-5.fc16.i686 != libreport-2.0.3-1.fc16.x86_64


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libreport-2.0.3-1

How reproducible:
each time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum --skip-broken update
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
yum exits with:
Error: Protected multilib versions: libreport-2.0.2-5.fc16.i686 != libreport-2.0.3-1.fc16.x86_64


Expected results:
normal update

Additional info:
trying yum --exclude=libreport --skip-broken update causes a huge number of skipped packages of type i686 (this is a x86_64 rawhide system)

yum --exclude=libreport --skip-broken update

Shows huge number of skipped packages, most are i686 pkgs....

Comment 4 Clyde E. Kunkel 2011-06-17 15:47:01 UTC
Per M. Schwendt:


This is the interesting part:

---> Package libreport.x86_64 0:2.0.2-5.fc16 will be updated
--> Processing Dependency: libreport = 2.0.2-5.fc16 for package: abrt-2.0.2-5.fc16.x86_64

So, abrt explicitly requires libreport with a specific version.
And since this update would replace the old libreport with a new version,
Yum's multiarch resolver typically gets confused and tries to look for
the needed version in the i686 packages.
 => ABRT needs a rebuild for this new libreport

Comment 5 Michael Schwendt 2011-06-29 12:08:08 UTC
Meanwhile, this has changed into a worse problem collecting the duplicates. abrt-gui no longer explicitly requires libreport subpackages, but libreport-gtk breaks deps elsewhere -> bug 715373 / bug 715212 and more...
