Description Luke Jones 2015-12-05 22:11:01 CET 
Description of problem:

Latest update in cauldron tries to update the kernel to the incorrect architecture. I have no i586 kernels installed.


Summary of packages to be installed is:
To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed:
  Package                        Version      Release       Arch    
(medium "Nonfree Release")
  nvidia-current-doc-html        352.63       2.mga6.nonfr> x86_64  
  nvidia-current-kernel-4.3.0-d> 352.63       5.mga6.nonfr> x86_64  
  nvidia-current-kernel-desktop> 352.63       5.mga6.nonfr> x86_64  
  x11-driver-video-nvidia-curre> 352.63       2.mga6.nonfr> x86_64  
(medium "Core 32bit Release")
  kernel-desktop-4.3.0-5.mga6    1            1.mga6        i586    
  libopenssl-devel               1.0.2e       1.mga6        i586    
  libopenssl-engines1.0.0        1.0.2e       1.mga6        i586    
  libopenssl1.0.0                1.0.2e       1.mga6        i586 

Final error message is:
Installation failed:	arch(x86_64) conflicts with kernel-desktop-4.3.0-5.mga6-1-1.mga6.i586


How reproducible:

Possibly every time. Need confirmation. 


Steps to Reproduce:
Perform update on an x86_64 computer.


Reproducible:

Comment 1 Thomas Backlund 2015-12-05 23:04:22 CET 
you are missing "Core Release" media for some reason.

The Conflicts: arch(x86_64) in 32bit kernels are in place to protect your system from getting wrong kernel arch to install wich it did here.

Status: NEW => RESOLVED

Comment 2 Luke Jones 2015-12-06 01:59:58 CET 
Thomas I have core release and core update media set up and enabled. Can you provide any other hints as to what is going on?

Somehow you Core Release is maybe lagging behind the Core 32bit Release?
