Description Aleksandar Milivojevic 2006-09-07 14:19:06 UTC
Description of problem:
I have an application that is 32-bit only and it requires openssl libraries. 
When installing openssl.i686, rpm complains about conflicting files from
openssl.x86_64 package:

# rpm -ihv openssl-0.9.7a-43.10.i686.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
        file /usr/share/man/man1/asn1parse.1ssl.gz from install of
openssl-0.9.7a-43.10 conflicts with file from package openssl-0.9.7a-43.10
        file /usr/share/man/man1/nseq.1ssl.gz from install of
openssl-0.9.7a-43.10 conflicts with file from package openssl-0.9.7a-43.10
        file /usr/share/man/man1/s_client.1ssl.gz from install of
openssl-0.9.7a-43.10 conflicts with file from package openssl-0.9.7a-43.10
        file /usr/share/man/man1/s_server.1ssl.gz from install of
openssl-0.9.7a-43.10 conflicts with file from package openssl-0.9.7a-43.10
        file /usr/share/man/man1/sslpasswd.1ssl.gz from install of
openssl-0.9.7a-43.10 conflicts with file from package openssl-0.9.7a-43.10

I can force installation of openssl.i686, and all is good (conflicting files are
manpages, and should be identical anyhow).

It would be nice if packaging of openssl would allow more smooth installation of
both 32-bit and 64-bit version of package.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
openssl-0.9.7a-43.10

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install x86_64 version of openssl (should be already there in default install)
2. Attempt to install i686 version of openssl in parallel to x86_64 version
  
Actual results:


Expected results:

I can't reproduce this problem here. If you're using a RHEL4 subscription,
please use your support account to report the problem so it can be properly
investigated and resolved. You can mention this bug report number there.

Uf, uh... wrong distro.  I was testing on my devel box (which is a clone).  EL4
packages seems to work fine.
