Comment 1 Richard W.M. Jones 2015-02-09 08:41:27 UTC 
I don't understand this bug.  Is
open-vm-tools-debuginfo-9.4.6-6.fc21.x86_64 already installed?  How
can the same package NVR be installed twice?  It sounds to me like
yum or your rpm database is broken.
Comment 2 Mr. Meval 2015-02-09 23:48:26 UTC 
It is not installed and will not install. It gives the above error.


The file it's complaining about is a link to another file in the archive.

Comment 3 Simone Caronni 2015-08-26 13:02:36 UTC 
This is fixed in the latest build, but just to be sure I removed the binary from the installed buildroot before packaging, there is no need for the debug information in the debuginfo subpackage if the binary is not available at all.
