I still get this error several times a week, and I still have no idea what it means or how I'm supposed to respond to it (other than fiddling randomly with packages until it goes away). The latest one: # yum install /usr/sbin/libvirtd [... yum spew deleted ...] Error: Protected multilib versions: libvirt-client-0.9.10-2.fc17.i686 != libvirt-client-0.9.10-3.fc17.x86_64 $ rpm -qa | grep libvirt-client libvirt-client-0.9.10-3.fc17.x86_64 What does the error mean?
You can get this when a package wants the older version of (in this case) libvirt-client and tries to pull in the i686 version to resolve the dependency when it doesn't specify a particular arch.
