Which I've done. Why does yum keep wanting to upgrade to the extras koffice? One issue: the installed koffice where built --target=i486 ( don't ask). rpm -q koffice-core.i486 koffice-core-1.4.1-4 But, why would yum try to install an x86_64 set? Will it always try to install the preferred target if another target is installed?

AFAIK, ghostscript provides libgs (or should).

libgs is supplied by ghostscript. koffice from extras won't install because libgs.so.7 isn't installed. It isn't installed because ghostscript-8.15-0.rc4.3 installs libgs.so.8.

locate libgs.so /usr/lib64/libgs.so.8 /usr/lib64/libgs.so /usr/lib64/libgs.so.8.15

OK. But so what? Why does yum want to "upgrade" koffice?
