Hmnn. Sadly did not work. :( I tried:

removing my i686 rpms from the repo.

yum clean all

yum reinstall python-libs python iscsi-initiator-utils

on the other box and this is what it installed:

Installed:
  iscsi-initiator-utils.i686 0:6.2.0.872-10.el6
  iscsi-initiator-utils.x86_64 0:6.2.0.872-10.el6
  python.i686 0:2.6.5-3.el6_0.2
  python.x86_64 0:2.6.5-3.el6_0.2
  python-libs.i686 0:2.6.5-3.el6_0.2
  python-libs.x86_64 0:2.6.5-3.el6_0.2

But then I get the same error message.

yum update

[SNIP]

--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Protected multilib versions: python-libs-2.6.6-20.el6.x86_64 != python-libs-2.6.5-3.el6_0.2.i686 Error: Protected multilib versions: python-2.6.6-20.el6.x86_64 != python-2.6.5-3.el6_0.2.i686 Error: Protected multilib versions: iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.872-21.el6.x86_64 != iscsi-initiator-utils-6.2.0.872-10.el6.i686
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Is the proper fix to use rpm commands? I thought most people are saying to use yum exclusively with package updates since there is a log of all the transactions...

Thanks for any ideas...

I'm wondering if maybe this is a bug that needs to go into bugzilla?

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
