I've been reporting file level conflicts for a long time (with a script on my fedorapeople page which is lacking automatic multilib support, however), but the openmpi/libotf conflict has been reported independently at least once: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/496131 Meanwhile the autoqa project is creating file level conflicts reports, too: https://fedorahosted.org/pipermail/autoqa-results/2009-September/thread.html > Is it ever valid for 2 > packages to own the same file? If their checksums are the same, yes, RPM won't complain. One could apply the existing packaging guidelines to this case, however: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:Guidelines#Duplicate_Files There would need to be a good reason for two packages to include the same file - instead of doing this via a shared package dependency. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
