As originally reported, and currently under discussion, in Fedora: David Hull 2013-07-22 18:27:21 EDT Description of problem: Attempting to update the nss RPM fails because of a conflict with perl-PAR-Packer on /usr/share/man/man1/pp.1.gz. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-PAR-Packer-1.014-2.fc19.x86_64 nss-tools-3.15.1-1.fc19.x86_64 How reproducible: Have already installed perl-PAR-Packer. Attempt to use "yum update" to update nss-tools-3.15-5.fc19.x86_64 to nss-tools-3.15.1-1.fc19.x86_64. Actual results: Transaction check error: file /usr/share/man/man1/pp.1.gz from install of nss-tools-3.15.1-1.fc19.x86_64 conflicts with file from package perl-PAR-Packer-1.014-2.fc19.x86_64 Expected results: Additional info: I'm reporting this bug against nss-tools because I perl-PAR-Packer installed first, but perhaps perl-PAR-Packer should be the RPM to be changed. [reply] [−] Private Comment 1 Elio Maldonado Batiz 2013-08-26 10:36:00 EDT Indeed, perl-PAR-Packer should be changed to not try to install an empty man page for its pp tool!

I then examined the actual sources and pp.1 is empty. I there is no contents, perl-PAR-Packer trying to install that empty manpage. [reply] [−] Private Comment 2 Petr Šabata 2013-08-27 12:00:11 EDT The empty manpage is another issue and needs to be fixed. However, nss-tools' pp utility is new and not in standard path. If the author (you) ever decides to move it, we'll have another problem in */bin. The manpage conflict is just a consequence of this. The tool should be renamed.
The downstream has been solved after coming to an agreement with the perl-PAR-Packer maintainer so I am closing this bug.
