Problem traced to a defective upgrade process as released on the F17 DVD, that does not upgrade the fully up-to-date F16 version of mesa, and simply installs the F17 version as well. Request that this problem be transferred to the installer product, as that is the root cause of this bug. This is actually a mulit-arch problem, because what it's comparing is the x86_64 F17 version with the i686 f16 version. Multilib screws us again. With F18, we've moved to a simpler upgrade process that does not involve anaconda in the least. We're using a tool called fedup now that takes the place of preupgrade, and then uses regular system tools to do the upgrade itself. With anaconda no longer involved, this bug report should no longer be relevant. |
