While updating my Fedora 19 system today using check-update I discovered 
this:


** Found 1 pre-existing rpm db problem(s), 'yum check' output follows:
cronie-1.4.10-7.fc19.i686 is a duplicate with cronie-1.4.10-6.fc19.i686
[root@localhost frank]#


It seems a few weeks ago Yum attempted to update cronie. as I recall
it failed because of a script problem in the package. I tried it a 
second time
and seemingly it installed. But now I have the duplicate problem.

What's the best way to resolve this ?
First (as superuser root) try out the

  package-cleanup --cleandupes

command. If that doesn't manage to remove the duplicate, give

  rpm --erase --justdb --noscripts --notriggers cronie-1.4.10-6.fc19

a try.

   I tried package-cleanup but it didn't work.

but

rpm --erase --justdb --noscripts --notriggers cronie-1.4.10-6.fc19

did! 

[root@localhost frank]# rpm -qa | grep cronie
cronie-anacron-1.4.10-7.fc19.i686
cronie-1.4.10-7.fc19.i686
[root@localhost frank]#

Thanks Michael


Cheers
