I updated my x86 machine day before yesterday, and I noticed two things. The clamav user and group was deleted, and not recreated, and when the makewhatis ran, I got a page full of "zcat: stdout: Broken pipe" entries. What gives with the makewhatis and clamav? Was clamav removed from the software? I encountered no errors when the transaction check and transactions were run.
You're likely mixing repositories and running into packages in multiple repos but packaged differently. There are a couple yum plugins designed to prevent this.
Not arguing about it, but I have done my best to avoid that. Have plugins enabled, =0 or =1 in each repo, includepkgs and exclude used everywhere I can ID the need.
This just FYI: I could have made a mistake as you suggest, but I would need to do some deep checking (with md5 sum check disabled :-) to concede it is my problem.
