Hi,

I have a workstation and three laptops running Fedora Rawhide. I did 
my daily update just now (I point to the Kent mirror rather than the 
Fedora mirrors so as to ensure all machines see the same repository, 
it updates mid-afternoon +00:00). Workstation and two laptops upgraded 
fine. One laptop is having troubles with the packages:

gdm.x86_64                    1:3.16.0.1-2.fc23                        
  rawhide
openmpi.x86_64                1.8.4-6.20150324gitg9ad2aa8.fc23         
  rawhide
openmpi-devel.x86_64          1.8.4-6.20150324gitg9ad2aa8.fc23         
  rawhide

trying to install them causes yum to fail:

…
Total size: 9.0 M
Is this ok [y/d/N]: y
Downloading packages:
Running transaction check
Running transaction test
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

though I am, not sure where the core is dumped to, it isn't .

It happens if I do gdm individually, the other two enforce each other 
so come as a pair, and they have the same problem.

I have no idea how to work out what is going wrong here so as to fix 
it, this is clearly a fault on the one laptop.

Any help tracking this down would be most welcome…
