Just tried to pick up the new kernel 2.6.25.6-27.fc8 with yum , this is

Dependencies Resolved

Installing for dependencies:

atrpms 1.6 M
kernel i686 2.6.25.6-27.fc8 updates 18 M
It is trying to install 2 versions of the same alsa-kmdl one for i586
another for i686 . I only have i686 :
So theoretically it should not be trying to install i586 unless there
issues with dependencies .
True, this is an issue with yum that the plugin cannot fix. You can
only outsmart yum with
yum install alsa-kmdl-2.6.25.6-27.fc8.i686 alsa-driver
The reason is that the plugin kicks in after yum's dependency
calculation and yum picks up the i586 package. The plugin then picks
up the proper one, but has no way of knowing whether the other one was
wrongly picked up by yum or explicitly by the user etc.
So in short: I cannot fix this, but it only happens if a kernel and a
kernel module get updated at the same time as it happened here (alsa
itself went to 1.0.17 as you can see above).
Only in this corner case does yum need to pick some kmdl and by
Murphy's law it's always the wrong one.
Thanks Axel ,
That did the trick . Much appreciate it .
