Hello list friends,

I got the following error during yum update.
How should I proceed to eliminate the probelm?
(I thought perhaps to uninstall the .i386 package -- but there 
are some 15-20 other packages depending on it...)


Repositories:	dries, kbs-CentOS-Extras, update, rpmforge, base, 
		addons, extras

FWIW: the protectbase plugin was added on 2006-07-10.

	Thanks in advance,
	Itay
