Could be the case, I can't check an F19 machine at the moment, what does
yum search boost-static --show-duplicates
report?
The output for that on this F18 system is unexpected:
boost-static-1.50.0-4.fc18.i686 : The Boost C++ static development libraries
boost-static-1.50.0-4.fc18.x86_64 : The Boost C++ static development libraries
boost-static-1.50.0-6.fc18.x86_64 : The Boost C++ static development libraries
vs:
boost-devel-1.50.0-4.fc18.i686 : The Boost C++ headers and shared development
: libraries
boost-devel-1.50.0-4.fc18.x86_64 : The Boost C++ headers and shared development
: libraries
boost-devel-1.50.0-6.fc18.i686 : The Boost C++ headers and shared development
: libraries
boost-devel-1.50.0-6.fc18.x86_64 : The Boost C++ headers and shared development
: libraries
So I'd likely be seeing the same problem as you using boost, as the
later 686 build is missing.
But it definitely exists, e.g.
http://mirror.bytemark.co.uk/fedora/linux/updates/18/i386/boost-build-1.50.0-6.fc18.noarch.rpm
or for your case
http://mirror.bytemark.co.uk/fedora/linux/updates/19/i386/boost-1.53.0-8.fc19.i686.rpm
so it's some kind of repository metadata issue, not sure where to file
a bug for that. Might be worth a post to the devel list.
