The rpm packages are in my local repo.
Is this just a case of my local upstream mirrors being out of sync or have I got a bigger problem.
I have seen this error before. I am not sure if the local cache is corrupted or my local repository is corrupted/out of sync. To fix this in the past I usually do a "yum clean all" and try again. If that doesn't work I delete the problem packages from my local repository, and do a repository sync.

Thanks for the reply,
That's exactly what I did but till have the same problem. It may be that the 2 upstream repos that I sync my local repo to are corrupted. This is the first time I've used the x86_64 repos. When I get a chance I'll try and use a different repo and see what happens.

These are internal machines so I had to set up a proxy to get external access.
Then I removed my local repos and used the "mirrorlist" line in the repos definitions and the "fastestmirror" plugin and the update went OK. So it must be a problem with my 2 upstream mirrors. I'll get onto the mirror masters and try and sort it out with them.

Alle,
FYI, I installed two x86_64 boxes by hand from a freshly downloaded DVD.iso. The first thing I did was update yum on both machines then ran a yum update. I have no local or third party repositories, but the error was the same for the same packages:

< lots snipped >
So it would appear that lots of download sites have the wrong rpms then.
I got the good rpms from the following repos
* fasttrack: ftp.tudelft.nl * update: ftp.quicknet.nl <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< * base: ftp.quicknet.nl * extras: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk * addons: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk
