Problem with openoffice yum update

2010-03-04 Thread Quentin Armitage
I cannot do a yum update of openoffice on F-13 RC4 with the updates-testing repo enabled. There seems to be an inconsistency around the dep checking, with it wanting both the old and new versions of openoffice.org-langpack-en. It is attempting to update from version 3.2.0-12.8.fc13.i686 to 3.2.0-12
