 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Expected results:

It should normally install gcc.

Additional info: It is a basic install of FC15. System is up to date, no hacks with addinional sources of packages are done.

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2011-05-17 13:04:54 UTC
Not gcc related at all, you've apparently installed glibc 2.13.90-11 from updates-testing, but don't have updates-testing enabled any longer.  User error.

Comment 2 Volodymyr Shcherbyna 2011-05-17 13:09:52 UTC
Thank you for clearing this up. But I did not switch off updates-testing.

Can it switch off by itself? It seems like I am not the only one affected with this problem.

Comment 3 jdonohue654-fedora 2011-05-23 00:20:09 UTC
I ran into the same thing and as a new fedora user was also confused. I found this helpful explanation of why updates-testing was turned off:

In case it helps anyone else, the fix is:

yum distro-sync
