Hello:
I don't recall seeing those conflicts before ?

So just a suggestion

From a terminal
yum -y update yum

yum -y install yumex

Yumex is a gui for yum, you will find it installed under
\Applications
\System Tools
Yum Extender

Use yumex and pick 20-30 packages at a time and try updating those.
Then move on to the next 20-30 etc.

If you find a conflict, remove the conflicting package from the queue and continue on.

Seve

You could also try
yum clean all

Then try again.

You seem to have switched from i386 to x86_64. I would not expect these to be compatible. What is your machine architecture and what media did you install from?

I seem to have the same problem. I used FC6 x86_64 with, apparently, mysql for a i386 architecture. After upgrading FC6 to FC8 x86_64 is get the same conflicts as descriped above. Is is possible that the FC6 x86_64 contained MySQL i386?

You could get a list of any installed i386 packages with:-

$ rpm -qa --qf "%-30{NAME} %-15{VERSION} %{ARCH}\n" | grep i386

Then check the repo for updates with a x86_64 arch and remove the i386 package before installing the x86_64 one. You are likely to run into dependency issues so do it methodically.

I have never installed a 64 bit machine, so these are just suggestions.

FWIW, I ran into problems upgrading, many years ago, and have done clean installs ever since.

Thanx. I indeed get i386 installed packages. What concerns me, I see a fc6-i386 version of mysql running as well as a fc8-x86_64 version of mysql. I don't know what caused it, but I'll have to repair it.

Maybe not such a bad idee of doing a clean install instead of an upgrade
