    We are still waiting for an answer to the following issue:

    On AMD64 machines the latest perl-update conflicts with an older file.

    Options are:

    1. Force installation of the new package -only man files are involved-.
    2. Delete the old package and reinstall -so far no problema-.
    3. $ sudo yum --enablerepo=updates-released-i386 update perl (I am not
    that crazy about perl right now).
    4. Wait for a refurbished update -elegant solution but I don't know if
    anyone would care about it-

    Thanks in advance for your advice
