python distutils on Fedora 20

[Brad Bell]

I suspect there is a problem with the install of gcc-c++.

I tried to remove and reinstall gcc-c++ and got errors. When I do a
     yum check
I get the following message:

1:NetworkManager-0.9.9.0-41.git20131003.fc20.x86_64 is a duplicate with

...

How does one fix these type of errors ?
