Fixed In Version:
Doc Type: Known Issue
Doc Text:
File conflicts, as a result of package renaming, caused direct upgrades of debuginfo from version 1.0.12 and earlier to a later version to fail due to duplicate files in the same location. The workaround for this problem is to manually uninstall the previous version of the debuginfo package before an installation or upgrade of the newer ovirt-guest-agent packages, such as: # yum remove rhevm-guest-agent-debuginfo This workaround does not introduce any limitations and is simple to execute for users of the debuginfo packages.

Comment 2 Vinzenz Feenstra [evilissimo] 2017-04-15 08:28:03 UTC 
This BZ is filed for the wrong product - This needs to be filed against RHV / ovirt-guest-agent
Comment 6 Vinzenz Feenstra [evilissimo] 2017-04-15 11:10:26 UTC 
In a similar way as it is noted in BZ#684182 we'll not be able to fix this issues and have to ask customers to uninstall the debuginfo package instead.

The appropriate release note was added to the BZ description no other changes will be applied.
