davfs2 install failed

[Robert Moskowitz]

I need davfs, and did a yum install davfs2 and got:

Downloading packages:
davfs2-1.4.7-3.fc20.x86_64.rpm | 146 kB  00:00:06
Running transaction check
Running transaction test
Transaction test succeeded
Running transaction

   Verifying  : davfs2-1.4.7-3.fc20.x86_64 1/1

Failed:

Complete!

What is this error saying.  What do I do to get it installed.

There have been several threads about it over the last few days:

Wow.  I did not read this thread, as I have been busy with other 
things.  And did not catch that my problem was reflected on them.

So the question is how long to wait before trying to do any 
update/install.  Hopefully there will be an 'all clear' post at some point.

Just follow the instructions in the Wiki at above link.
Also run "package-cleanup --cleandupes" afterwards.
