Description of problem: yum update breaks because of a either spurious or hardcoded dependency on glibc Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gdb-heap-0.5-1.fc14 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install gdb-heat 2. yum update 3. yum will then breaks Actual results: Erreur : Package: gdb-heap-0.5-1.fc14.x86_64 (fedora) Requires: glibc(x86-64) = 2.12.90 Installé: glibc-2.13-1.x86_64 (@updates-testing) glibc(x86-64) = 2.13-1 Available: glibc-2.12.90-17.x86_64 (fedora) glibc(x86-64) = 2.12.90-17 Available: glibc-2.12.90-21.x86_64 (updates) glibc(x86-64) = 2.12.90-21 Vous pouvez essayer d'utiliser --skip-broken pour contourner le problème # rpm -q glibc glibc-2.13-1.x86_64 glibc-2.13-1.i686 Expected results: yum update should be kept silent from dependency breakage. Additional info: glibc has been approved for critpath update. Unless already in buildroot, a buildroot override have to be requested at rel-eng
