Description of problem: An attempted update of procps-ng fails as follows: Error: Transaction check error: file /usr/share/man/pl/man1/kill.1.gz from install of procps-ng-3.3.12-2.fc29.x86_64 conflicts with file from package man-pages-pl-1:0.7-2.fc27.noarch file /usr/share/man/pl/man1/uptime.1.gz from install of procps-ng-3.3.12-2.fc29.x86_64 conflicts with file from package man-pages-pl-1:0.7-2.fc27.noarch Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): procps-ng-3.3.12-2.fc29 Additional info: With man-pages-pl removed from an installation the update in question, not surprisingly, proceeds but this package supplies 1496 different manpages so this is not a desirable course of action. A package man-pages-pl-0.7-2.fc27 is present in the current rawhide repositories so it is not a "stray". I did not check if procps-ng conflicts with other man packages. Looking at what is supplies there is a potential for conflicts at least with man-pages-de, man-pages-fr and man-pages-zh-CN.
This needs to be fixed in man-pages-pl.

This is actually blocking F28 Final, as there is a conflict on the Server DVD (as both man-pages-pl and procps-ng are on the Server DVD): "There must be no errors in any package on the release-blocking images which cause the package to fail to install. ... Critical errors include, but are not limited to, undeclared conflicts" This is an automatic blocker, per https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process#Automatic_blockers .
