Description of problem: If I try to install both gtest-devel.i686 and gtest-devel.x86_64 at the same time I get the following error from yum: Transaction Check Error: file /usr/bin/gtest-config conflicts between attempted installs of gtest-devel-1.5.0-5.fc15.x86_64 and gtest-devel-1.5.0-5.fc15.i686 This is a problem because the software project I work on (mesa) can be built either for x86_64 and i686, so I need to be able to test it under both configurations. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.5.0-5.fc15 How reproducible: Consistently reproducible. Steps to Reproduce: 1. sudo yum install gtest-devel.i686 gtest-devel.x86_64 Actual results: Yum gives the error message: Transaction Check Error: file /usr/bin/gtest-config conflicts between attempted installs of gtest-devel-1.5.0-5.fc15.x86_64 and gtest-devel-1.5.0-5.fc15.i686 Expected results: Both the x86_64 and i686 versions of the package install properly. Additional info:
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
