[SOLVED] Conflicts wen updating my Mageia5 system

[pedro]

Just tried to update my system and have these two conflicts.
Can I do something to fix it?

Code: Select all

2 installationstransaktioner misslyckades

Det uppstod ett fel under installationen:

fil /usr/include/pcre.h från installation av lib64pcre-devel-8.37-2.2.mga5.x86_64 står i konflikt med filen från paket libpcre-devel-8.37-2.1.mga5.i586

fil /usr/include/pcre.h från installation av libpcre-devel-8.37-2.2.mga5.i586 står i konflikt med filen från paket lib64pcre-devel-8.37-2.1.mga5.x86_64

No. Question is why your system want to update an x86_64 package with an i586 and vice-versa.

Please show the output of

Code: Select all

urpmq --list-media active --list-url
rpm -qa |grep pcre|sort
arch

lib64pcre-devel-8.37-2.1.mga5
libpcre-devel-8.37-2.1.mga5

That's your problem. For most -devel packages, you cannot have both x86_64 and i586 packages installed, they will always conflict.
Remove one of them (probably the second one) and you should be OK.

Thank you nce again doctor!
removed libpcre-devel-8.37-2.1.mga5 and now updating worked fine.
