Hi Gary,
I just ran into this upon updating to RHEL6.1 on two x86_64 systems too...
The reason behind this is that el6.0 provided both python.x86_64 and
python.i686 while the el6.1 update only provided python.x86_64 (so does
the DVD media too, btw). I opened SR 00478213 with RH about that issue.
In the end, I solved the issue by doing this:
# rpm -e boost-python.i686 iscsi-initiator-utils.i686 \
gstreamer-python.i686 rhythmbox.i686 glade3-libgladeui.i686 \
PyQt4.i686 boost-devel.i686 python.i686 python-devel.i686 \
tkinter.i686 python-libs.i686
The RH engineer also suggested that this would have solved my problem:
# yum reinstall python python-devel libtdb tdb-tools
PS: a few other rpms show some kind of issue too (tdb-tools,
libcmpiCppImpl0-devel vs. tog-pegasus-devel, etc..)
I hope this helps,
Regards,
Vincent

Greetings,
Recently I could not get updates on both my RHEL 6 desktops. The error
message was this:
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Protected multilib versions: python-libs-2.6.6-20.el6.x86_64 !=

You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I built a iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.872-21.el6.i686.rpm and a
python-2.6.6-20.el6.i686.rpm and python-libs-2.6.6-20.el6.i686.rpm rpms from
sources and added them to a local repo I use and that got around the problem.
So I guess 32 bit versions of these rpms were not built for the latest
updates..
Should I put this into bugzilla for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6? Its not a bug
per se in RHEL. Its just that they forgot to add in these 32 bit packages to
the repo so on systems where both 32 and 64 bit packages are installed yum
breaks.
Thanks,
