Dear SL users,<div><br></div><div>although familiar with debian based linux distributions, this is my first SL x86_64 installation. I have installed the latest SL version (netboot) with subsequent update of all packages. </div>
<div>I need the gtk2-devel package.</div><div><br></div><div>However, yum is not installing and stops with the following message:</div><div><br></div><div>Test Transaction Errors:   </div><div>package pixman-0.18.4-1.el6_0.1.x86_64 (which is newer than pixman-0.16.6-1.el6.i686) is already installed</div>
<div><br></div><div>This is confusing to me. yum has selected pixman-0.16.6-1.el6.i686, which comes from a 686 depot. I&#39;m running x86_64 installation and yum should know that pixman is already installed.</div><div><br>
</div><div>It would be grateful if someone could help me to sort this problem. Is there a way to remove manually the pixman dependency ?</div><div><br></div><div>Many thanks</div><div><br></div><div>Frank  </div><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
