https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=462125

A user is installing libcdio on rawhide and gets a file conflict on the
man pages when installing the x86_64 and i386 version at the same time.

I fixed it on my F8 test system and verified it by installing the libcdio
version from rawhide on that F8 system.

On the system of the bug reporter it still fails with the same error
message about a file conflict.

I think I have verified that the man pages in the x86_64 and i386
version of the package have the same time. If somebody knows why this
still fails or if there are any other ideas how to fix this, I would be
happy to hear it. Thanks.


For the cause, see attachment.

The best solution is probably to split libcdio in libcdio and libcdio-progs,
with the utilities and the man-pages in -progs, then on x86_64 there will only
be both an x86_64 and i386 version of libcdio and libcdio-devel but not of
libcdio-progs. Added advantages of this approach are some saved diskspace for
the 99% of users who only want the lib (mostly relevant for livecd's) and the
rpm people want to get rid of the filecolor hack, where elf binaries may differ
and this is not a file conflict but instead the 64 bits version gets used, in
the future, so all packages will need a split between libs and progs in the
future anyways.

Hans
