This is dupe of bug 995158. Unfortunately it is not possible to do anything about it. The problem happened due to some change in the build system and wasn't spotted by the QE. You need to remove the wrong acpid-2.0.19-5.fc19.x86_64 by the following command: # rpm -e --noscripts acpid-2.0.19-5 Sorry for the inconvenience. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1001785 ***
Thank you for the workaround. Sorry for not finding the dupe myself.
