Looks like I left a couple of fields blank.

The description would be the same as the summary.

It reproduces 100% of the time.

Comment 2 Andre Robatino 2010-05-29 21:43:59 UTC
See bug #596840.  It looks like although nss-softokn was updated yesterday - see

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/package-announce/2010-May/042083.html

the 32-bit version isn't available yet.  You can download it and install manually from

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/13/i386/

if you want, or just wait for it to be straightened out.

Isn't this an issue with either the dependency or the transaction check for glib.i686? It appears that glibc.i686 depends on nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.4-17.fc13.i686 yet nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.4-19.fc13.x86_64 installed as a dependency for glibc.x86_64:

yum install glibc.i686

This issue isn't solely an i386 issue. I'm hitting the same issue on an x86_64 desktop trying to install KDE onto an existing system.

Comment 6 Darryl L. Pierce 2010-06-06 13:08:02 UTC
Sorry, should have provided more details.

I have nss-softokn{-freebl} 3.12.4-19 installed on my system:

(mcpierce@mcpierce-work:~)$ rpm -qa nss-softokn*
nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.4-19.fc13.x86_64
nss-softokn-3.12.4-19.fc13.x86_64

and am hitting dependency problems trying to install KDE onto an existing system.

Comment 7 wdsnyc 2010-06-06 23:27:53 UTC
Thanks fabrixx. Running localinstall against the fedora 13 mirrors will allow one to install the 3.12.4-19.fc13.i686 version of nss-softokn-freebl which will allow glibc.i686 to be installed.

But I believe a problem still exists in the yum dependency for glibc.i686. It should be upgraded to nss-softokn-freebl-3.12.4-19.fc13.i686 which corresponds to the x86_64 versions.

Comment 9 Phillip Lynn 2010-06-13 15:12:43 UTC
When I attempt to complete a yum update I get the following:
package nss-softokn-3.12.4-19.fc13.x86_64 (which is newer than nss-softokn-3.12.4-17.fc13.i686) is already installed

Something is not correct in nss-softokn update process.  I am using linux 64 bit but the system is attempting to update my system with a 32 bit file.
