yum check error elfutils

[Stephen Davies]

Since upgrading from Fedora 20 to 21 (using fedup), I get the following:

[root@mustang ~]# yum check
Loaded plugins: langpacks
elfutils-libs-0.161-2.fc21.i686 has missing requires of 
elfutils-libelf(x86-32) = ('0', '0.161', '2.fc21')
elfutils-libs-0.161-6.fc20.x86_64 is a duplicate with 
elfutils-libs-0.161-2.fc21.i686
Error: check all

What must I do to fix this?

Cheers and thanks,
Stephen

run "package-cleanup --cleandupes"

I tried that but got:

No duplicates to remove

A paradox?

You got a newer version of the x86_64 package from the F20 repos than
appears to be available in the F21 repos.  A `yum distro-sync` should take
care of it, but I recommend you thoroughly review
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Fenris02/Distribution_upgrades_and_cleani...
.

More likely that I misread the error....

I have this on my F21 which was a fedup from F20.

[egreshko@meimei ~]$ rpm -qa | grep elf
elfutils-libs-0.161-6.fc21.x86_64
elfutils-libelf-0.161-6.fc21.i686
elfutils-libs-0.161-6.fc21.i686
elfutils-libelf-0.161-6.fc21.x86_64
elfutils-0.161-6.fc21.x86_64

So, if you have fc20 components installed I'd start off by removing them and replacing them with the F21 version.

You may also first want to try "yum distro-sync".

If so, it's not a most delightful paradox, that's for sure.  Try this, JIC:

package-cleanup --problems

That did the trick thank you all.

I had to remove google earth to get the sync to work but the end result is good.

Thanks again,
