That makes no sense, because if the headers were the same, they would not conflict. Let's revisit https://bugzilla.redhat.com/787713#c28 | /usr/bin/freesolid-config (Part of *-devel) contains hard-coded | paths to %{_libdir}. | | This prevents parallel installation of *-devel.i386 and *-devel.x86_64 | and means this package is not multilib-ready. The conflict is in the /usr/bin/freesolid-config script, which is different for the different archs due to different paths in it. One possible solution has been mentioned in the same bugzilla comment. -- Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) - Linux 3.4.4-3.fc17.x86_64 loadavg: 0.76 0.71 0.85 -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
