Noticed today that yum (or yumex, I barely use pirut) has been leaving multiple version of software installed, just to be clear this isn't a i386 and an x86_64 version of the same package, it is two numerically different versions.

This has been affected about 50 packages in total, some lib*, lots of gnome*, some xorg and a few *.noarch, so no particular area.

I have had a few yum updates hang (due to the gcj-dbtool hanging?) so this might explain it, I've manually tided up the dupes now.

Since I can't say what brought this on and can't repoduce it at the moment, I'm not planning to bugzilla it, unless anyone else sees it too, or thinks it is significant enough to warrant a bugzilla?

Happened to me as well... more than just dup packages caused foomatic not to install all its bits and system-config-printer broke along with some other apps. Had rpm -e --nodeps <package> and yum install <package> to fix it.
