Description of problem: On x86_64 libxml++-devel does not automatically pull-in glibmm24-devel.x86_64, but only the i386 package. pkg-config fails stating that the glibmm-2.4 is missing. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libxml++-devel-2.20.0-1.fc8.x86_64 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 0. Only on x86_64: 1. Remove any glibmm libxml++ packages 2. yum install libxml++ 3. glibmm24-devel is only installed i386, not x86_64 Actual results: glibmm24-devel.x86_64 not installed Expected results: glibmm24-devel.x86_64 pulled in as dependency Additional info: yum install libxml++-devel gives: Installing: libxml++-devel x86_64 2.20.0-1.fc8 development 438 k libxml++-devel i386 2.20.0-1.fc8 development 438 k Installing for dependencies: glibmm24 i386 2.15.2-1.fc9 development 253 k glibmm24-devel i386 2.15.2-1.fc9 development 4.7 M libsigc++20 i386 2.0.18-2.fc9 development 50 k libsigc++20-devel i386 2.0.18-2.fc9 development 1.7 M libxml++ i386 2.20.0-1.fc8 development 81 k libxml++ x86_64 2.20.0-1.fc8 development 81 k Without the glibmm24-devel.x86_64 package pkg-config will fail for libxml++.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This is no longer a problem on F9. I don't know when exactly this was fixed. Have just tried it and it works just fine.
