It sounds like lpf-skype has its dependencies wrong as it probably should be listing 32bit pulse (it'll run without it, but wont perform its major function). Your immediate problem though is getting the 32 bit pulse installed. The bit you snipped from the error is telling you more about it "Multilib version problems found. This often means that the root cause is something else and multilib version checking is just pointing out that there is a problem." For some reason yum has determined it would be trying to install a different version of 32bit pulseaudio-libs (5.0-25) to the 64bit one (5.0-7). Normally it would just update the 64bit one so both are the same version, something is preventing it from doing that. Possibilities: Something with a dependency on the older 64 bit version that doesn't have an update available. Third party repositories or packages installed without a repository are the likely culprits. - In this case if you can find and remove the blocking package then you'll be able to update, but you may not be able to reinstall. Repo metadata is not properly updated yet and the newer 32bit library is visible while the newer 64bit is not. In this case just waiting and trying again later will probably work. In either case you could get around it by installing the older 32bit version, telling yum to install pulseaudio-libs-5.0-7.fc20.i686 (provided it's still available), though if something is holding you at the older version you will run into it again at some point. -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
