That it feels wrong and klunky to have to have a working i686 distribution before we can have a working x86_64 distribution. I know it's not the goal of fedora but at some point I would hope we could just rid ourselves of i686 forever once x86_64 saturation is sufficiently complete. Anyway to fix the problem for the mock case in your mock.cfg make it look like this: [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=1 reposdir=/dev/null logfile=/var/log/yum.log retries=20 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=0 assumeyes=1 exclude=*.i386 *.486 *.586 *.i686 *.athlon includepkgs=glibc*.i686 *.x86_64 *.ia32e *.noarch that should allow for the specific packages you want. whomever is running against this error, please let me know if the above succeeds. thanks, -sv -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
