It shouldn't be possible to install packages with conflicting files, separate transactions or not, without some sort of forcing. If it is, then its a rather grave bug somewhere in rpm file conflict logic and needs finding and fixing. A reproducer would be very much appreciated. Note that rpm < 4.6.0 did behave differently here: packages with conflicting files were allowed to be installed in the same transaction but not if installed separately, leading to strange situations. So if there's a chance you've tested on RHEL/Centos at some point, that could explain it as it'd then be just a matter of which order the packages got installed in. - Panu - -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
