Ian, A thousand thanks. I believe I had been attempting yum update openldap.x86_64 which also failed, no doubt because of the i386 copy. But after reading your information, I ran yum update openldap after which yum install subversion-devel.x86_64 ran just fine. (Output below for reference.) Thanks for your clarifications on the x86_64 and i386 versions. Updating both was the key.

The two packages can coexist since files like /usr/share/man/man5/ldap.conf.5.gz are the same between the architectures. Installing subversion wants to update openldap.x86_64 to 2.3.30-2.fc6. But openldap.i386 is not being updated and the file is different between the versions. The solution is to do a "yum update" to update to latest version before installing subversion. - Ian _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum [root@shannon ess-5.3.4]# yum install subversion-devel.x86_64 Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Parsing package install arguments Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.
