Description of problem: dnf update is showing a conflict between packages perl-libs i686 and x86_64 Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-libs-4:5.24.2-387 How reproducible: dnf update Actual results: Running transaction test The downloaded packages were saved in cache until the next successful transaction. You can remove cached packages by executing 'dnf clean packages'.

You try to install perl-libs packages of different versions: perl-libs-4:5.24.2-387.fc25.i686 perl-libs-4:5.24.1-386.fc25.x86_64 This cannot work. You should investigate, why your system cannot upgrade x86_64 perl-libs from 4:5.24.1-386.fc25 to 4:5.24.2-387.fc25. Specifying the exact perl-libs version and architecture could reveal what's the problem. Like: # dnf install perl-libs-4:5.24.2-387.fc25.x86_64 or # dnf repoquery perl-libs-4:5.24.2-387.fc25.x86_64
By the way, repoquery on "perl-libs" should list the same version for both architectures: # LANG=en_US.UTF-8 dnf repoquery perl-libs Last metadata expiration check: 0:11:49 ago on Mon Jul 24 10:15:43 2017. perl-libs-4:5.24.0-377.fc25.i686 perl-libs-4:5.24.0-377.fc25.x86_64 perl-libs-4:5.24.2-387.fc25.i686 perl-libs-4:5.24.2-387.fc25.x86_64
The problem must really be with the net-snmp-devel.i686 package. I uninstalled the i686 net-snmp-devel along with its dependencies and then tried to reinstall with dnf. % dnf install net-snmp-devel.i686 Last metadata expiration check: 1:40:06 ago on Mon Jul 24 06:11:22 2017.

No. This is still the same issue. It tries to install 387 release for i686 which is the latest one. That's fine. But for some reason it does not want to update x86_64 release from 386 to 387. You need too figure out why DNF does not want to update x86_64 perl-libs from 386 to 387.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '25'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
