Description of problem: Latest i686 package for openjdk-devel is no longer available to yum, from (all ?) mirrors. However : - from the same mirrors, rpm can be downloaded fine from HTTP client - from the same mirrors. x86_64 rpm is available to yum - from fedoraproject itself, both are available to yum Are the mirrors' repo.xml incomplete or corrupted ? I have seen this issue with all "usual" mirrors here (fastestmirror). Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel-1.7.0.3-2.2.1.fc16.7.i686 How reproducible: Always, for a few weeks (months ?) Steps to Reproduce: 1) Disable mirrors, then # yum clean all && yum --showduplicates list *openjdk-devel* 2) Enable mirrors, then # yum clean all && yum --showduplicates list *openjdk-devel* Actual results: Latest i686 version of the package is not available to yum via mirrors Expected results: Latest i686 version of the package is available to yum via mirrors Additional Info: Usual mirrors here rpmfind.net, cica.es, uv.es, ...

I am not sure why i686 is even showing up on any of the mirrors. There should be no 32-bit java-1.6.0-* or java-1.7.0-* in the x86_64 repos. Changing component to distribution.
Fedora 17 is also afflicted. Not having equal updates for i686 and x86_64 can also trip the multilib checking: $ sudo yum install java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel.i686 Loaded plugins: auto-update-debuginfo, changelog, downloadonly, langpacks, presto fedora/metalink | 33 kB 00:00 fedora | 4.2 kB 00:00 google-chrome | 951 B 00:00 updates/metalink | 21 kB 00:00 updates | 4.7 kB 00:00 (1/2): fedora/primary_db | 14 MB 00:06 (2/2): updates/primary_db | 6.7 MB 00:01 google-chrome/primary | 1.4 kB 00:00 fedora/group_gz | 434 kB 00:00 updates/group_gz | 435 kB 00:00 google-chrome 3/3 Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel.i686 1:1.7.0.3-2.1.fc17.6 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: java-1.7.0-openjdk = 1:1.7.0.3-2.1.fc17.6 for package: 1:java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel-1.7.0.3-2.1.fc17.6.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libjli.so(SUNWprivate_1.1) for package: 1:java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel-1.7.0.3-2.1.fc17.6.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libjli.so for package: 1:java-1.7.0-openjdk-devel-1.7.0.3-2.1.fc17.6.i686 --> Running transaction check ---> Package java-1.7.0-openjdk.x86_64 1:1.7.0.3-2.1.fc17.6 will be installed ---> Package java-1.7.0-openjdk.i686 1:1.7.0.9-2.3.3.fc17.1 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Multilib version problems found. This often means that the root cause is something else and multilib version checking is just pointing it that there is a problem. Eg.: 1. You have an upgrade for java-1.7.0-openjdk which is missing some dependency that another package requires. Yum is trying to solve this by installing an older version of java-1.7.0-openjdk of the different architecture. If you exclude the bad architecture yum will tell you what the root cause is (which package requires what). 2. You have multiple architectures of java-1.7.0-openjdk installed, but yum can only see an upgrade for one of those arcitectures. If you don't want/need both architectures anymore then you can remove the one with the missing update and everything will work. 3. You have duplicate versions of java-1.7.0-openjdk installed already. You can use "yum check" to get yum show these errors. ...you can also use --setopt=protected_multilib=false to remove this checking, however this is almost never the correct thing to do as something else is very likely to go wrong (often causing much more problems).

This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is 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" 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
Fedora 16 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2013-02-12. Fedora 16 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
