Anyone have an idea where this one is coming from? koffice-1.6.3-9.fc7 is
the latest build. One of the recent changes was to fix things so that
these extraneous pkgs wouldn't get pulled into the multilib mix (ie, by
inadvertantly providing things required by koffice-devel).
It is a broken multi-lib dependency.
In repository "fedora-7-x86_64" (i.e. the "Everything" repo for
x86_64)
there are three i386 koffice-foo packages which require something that
isn't available in the combined set of repositories for F7, F7 Updates
and F7 Test Updates.
koffice-core.i386 with version-release 1.6.2-3.fc7 is not seen anymore
in these x86_64 metadata.
You cannot remove old multi-lib packages from the repos (unless
rel-eng supports doing that on request). You can only upgrade packages
with proper dependencies.
Most likely the koffice-1.6.3-9.fc7 update you mention upgrades the
koffice-core NEVR to 1.6.3-9.fc7, and no updates for the three i386
packages or the new koffice-core have been copied into the x86_64.
