Description Andreas Stieger 2016-06-17 13:25:23 UTC 
File conflict in proposed maintenance update openSUSE:Maintenance:5240 for man-pages.
The update for SLE was for bug 967488 and was imported from SUSE:SLE-12-SP1:Update/man-pages.2054
In Leap 42.1 both glibc-utils and man-pages are from SUSE:SLE-12-SP1:Update. This affects SLE 12 SP1 as well.

Problem is as follows (as manifesting itself while updating)

===============================================================

The following affects SLE 12 SP1 as well:

Both packages claim to own the file:

$ rpm -ql man-pages | grep mtrace

/usr/share/man/man3/mtrace.3.gz

$ rpm -ql glibc-utils | grep mtrace
/usr/bin/mtrace
/usr/share/man/man1/mtrace.1.gz

man-pages was never updated, and glibc currently has it:

$ rpm -qf /usr/share/man/man1/mtrace.1.gz
glibc-utils-2.19-19.1.x86_64

$ rpm -q --verify man-pages
.........  d /usr/share/man/man1/mtrace.1.gz (replaced)

===============================================================

The openSUSE:Factory the following change was done:

Mon Sep  8 09:48:26 UTC 2014 - schwab@suse.de
[...]
- Update to glibc 2.20 release.
[...]
- Remove sprof.1, and mtrace.1, now included in the man-pages package
Comment 1 Andreas Stieger 2016-06-17 14:00:36 UTC 
This does not affect SLE as glibc-utils is not shipped there, but can you please make an equivalent change to SLE glibc(glibc-utils) to accomodate Leap?
Comment 2 Leonardo Chiquitto 2016-06-17 14:26:28 UTC 
Turns out this is already fixed in the update we have in the queue.
