I installed x86_64 F17 from the netinst.iso yesterday, selected a minimal install, and immediately upgraded to rawhide. Worked like a charm. However, now that I try to use the resulting system and need a few packages, I find that installing them is um, ... challenging. For example, yesterday I couldn't even install gcc due to this: Error: Protected multilib versions: \ libgomp-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 != \ libgomp-4.7.0-1.fc17.x86_64 Could part of the problem be that gcc requires a specific version of libgomp? As seen in gcc.spec: Requires: libgomp = %{version}-%{release} (i.e., =, not >=), yet the x86_64 libgomp installed in rawhide was too new to meet that criterion. The "=" caused the matching i686 version to be pulled in, and that triggered the "protected multilib" warning. I was able to kludge around this by removing libgomp-4.7.0-1.fc17.x86_64 and all packages that depend on it (luckily only 2 or 3). Then, installing gcc worked fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------ However, today when I try to install g++, something similar is happening (symptom: yum wants to install i686 packages to meet version constraints) but this time, my work-around is not an option. root$ yum install --skip-broken gcc-c++ : Loaded plugins: etckeeper, fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * rawhide: fedora.mirrors.ovh.net Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package gcc-c++.x86_64 0:4.7.0-0.20.fc17 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: libstdc++-devel = 4.7.0-0.20.fc17 for package: gcc-c++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: libstdc++ = 4.7.0-0.20.fc17 for package: gcc-c++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.x86_64 --> Running transaction check ---> Package libstdc++.i686 0:4.7.0-0.20.fc17 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.0) for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libm.so.6 for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libgcc_s.so.1(GLIBC_2.0) for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_4.2.0) for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.3) for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libgcc_s.so.1(GCC_3.0) for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libgcc_s.so.1 for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4) for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: ld-linux.so.2(GLIBC_2.3) for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 --> Processing Dependency: ld-linux.so.2 for package: libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 ---> Package libstdc++-devel.x86_64 0:4.7.0-0.20.fc17 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: libstdc++(x86-64) = 4.7.0-0.20.fc17 for package: libstdc++-devel-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.x86_64 --> Running transaction check ---> Package glibc.i686 0:2.15-32.fc18 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: libfreebl3.so(NSSRAWHASH_3.12.3) for package: glibc-2.15-32.fc18.i686 --> Processing Dependency: libfreebl3.so for package: glibc-2.15-32.fc18.i686 ---> Package libgcc.i686 0:4.7.0-0.20.fc17 will be installed ---> Package libstdc++-devel.x86_64 0:4.7.0-0.20.fc17 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: libstdc++(x86-64) = 4.7.0-0.20.fc17 for package: libstdc++-devel-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.x86_64 --> Running transaction check ---> Package libstdc++-devel.x86_64 0:4.7.0-0.20.fc17 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: libstdc++(x86-64) = 4.7.0-0.20.fc17 for package: libstdc++-devel-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.x86_64 ---> Package nss-softokn-freebl.i686 0:3.13.4-0.1.fc18.beta1.1 will be installed Packages skipped because of dependency problems: gcc-c++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.x86_64 from rawhide glibc-2.15-32.fc18.i686 from rawhide libgcc-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 from rawhide libstdc++-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.i686 from rawhide libstdc++-devel-4.7.0-0.20.fc17.x86_64 from rawhide nss-softokn-freebl-3.13.4-0.1.fc18.beta1.1.i686 from rawhide Any suggestions? Removing libstdc++ is not an option because it would remove far too many things, including yum itself. ------------------------------------------------------------------ I guess this can be seen as my own damn fault ;-) for choosing the netinst+minimal installation options rather than the more mainstream "install-from-liveCD" approach... -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
