That sounds like it fits what I see. In that case, the answer seems to be to
see if the CRC matches what is in the database for the other package that
lays claim to the file. If so, leave it alone.
So, I moved on to removing kdebase....
[root@spirit ~]# rpm -q --whatrequires kdebase | grep i386
OK, good...nothing needs kdebase i386
[root@spirit ~]# rpm -e kdebase-3.4.91-2.i386
error: Failed dependencies:
/usr/lib/mozilla/plugins is needed by (installed)
HelixPlayer-1.0.4-4.i386
The --whatrequires option queries dependencies directly - it doesn't do
a recursive search for all the things which the package provides (such
as /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins and all the kde base libraries).
