It tries to own /usr/bin, which it can't own, and so fails. Here's a web reference to it. http://forums.fedoraforum.org/showthread.php?t=302767 and here https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/85979/transaction-check-error-during-google-earth-install/ A long time ago I installed google earth, and used a work around on the spec file. I don't remember it now, but I think it involved rebuilding the rpm fixed to not own these system directories, and it worked with the rebuilt rpm file. The way to fix this so you can upgrade is by removing only google earth using rpm directly, instead of through dnf. rpm --erase --nodeps --test [google-earth-stable?] This will test the command without doing anything. When it does what you want, remove the --test option. After the upgrade, you can look for ways to re-install google earth. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org

Since it has been a week or so, and memory is getting creaky ... There is a new version of Google Earth (ver 7?, someone help me). It doesn't use the google-earth.repo So, I removed/backup up the google-earth.repo from /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory. dnf removed google-earth-stable (I think that's the right name) and! went into the /var/lib/dnf/system-upgrade (I think) and rm'd the google-earth package that was sitting there. From memory, that's what worked for me (but YMMV) Once the upgrade completed, and everything seemed to be functioning correctly, I then did a dnf install package that I downloaded from the Google Earth page.
