Hello,
A user posted some issue on gnutls [0], and it turned out that after a
fresh install of f24 that user had two versions of the library
installed. I have no idea why this can be or whether that should be
expected from the installer/updater. Any insights?
Could be lots of reasons. An x86_64 and i686 library installed
simultaneously can appear confusingly as duplicate libraries if you
don't ask rpm to report architecture. A system interruption during the
update can block rpm from clearing the old entries in its database. Or
a failure of '%post' operations can cause the update to fail partway
through.
The usual answer if there are genuinely two copies reported is to do a
"reinstall" if it's two distinct versions of the same package, and to
do an "rpm --rebuilddb" and see if that helps.
