Self-installation problem

[parsa]

Hi,
so I installed fedora 14 fresh no updates and when I try to install I get this:

Code: Select all

Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/man/man5/dhcp-options.5.gz from install of dhcp-12:4.2.0-21.P2.fc14.x86_64 conflicts with file from package dhclient-12:4.2.0-6.fc14.x86_64 Error Summary -------------

What to do?

It looks like a Fedora packaging problem. It looks like dhclient installed a file that conflicts with one that dhcp-options wants to install.

My system is 32 bit, so I did not see this error on my system.

It might be helpful to look in your log files (in /var/log) to find out exactly which file is causing the problem.
I don't know if this could be fixed by manually 'force'ing the installation of the the dhcp-options package or not.

Fortunately, it looks like the conflict is in the manual pages and not an executable.

Anyone else with 64bit system see this before?

Ahh

...fresh no updates...

.

Try applying the updates first and see if that fixes it.
