Fedora 17 Package Conflicts

From: johnsg@...
Date: Mon, 29 Jul 2013 15:01:13 -0400
Recent Fedora 17 yum updates are failing.

Failure report reads:
file ...(various files)... from install of
trinity-hal-info-20091130-1.fc17.noarch conflicts with
   file from package hal-info-20090716-4.fc17.noarch

files affected include:
.../10freedesktop/
          10-laptop-panel-hardware.fdi
          10-modem.fdi
          10-usb-card-readers.fdi
          10-usb-music-players.fdi
          20-vidio-quirk-pm-acer.fdi
          20-vidio-quirk-pm-asus.fdi
          20-vidio-quirk-pm-hp.fdi
          20-vidio-quirk-pm-ibm.fdi
          20-vidio-quirk-pm-lenovo.fdi
          20-vidio-quirk-pm-sony.fdi
          30-keymap-hp.fdi
          30-keymap-misc.fdi

The trinity-hal-info package is nominally from the repo:
    trinity-3.5.13-noarch

The hal-info package is nominally from the repo:
    trinity-extras-noarch

There is also a disconnect between Fedora Release values: hal-info  
reports as  Release 4.fc17; trinity-hal-info reports as Release 1.fc17.

Note there are crossconflicts in both file size and date, so I  
hesitated to just pick one.

Problem is not occuring on current Scientific Linux updates.

Don't know if this affects other Fedora versions.

If its not a quickfix, any suggested workarounds would be appreciated.


Thanks for Trinity
Really Really Thanks
