Error: Transaction check error #75

Trying to get HaLVM up and running but get a problem:

dnf install halvm-xen halvm-xen-devel

as described here

Which throws the following error:

...
Error: Transaction check error:
  file /usr/lib64/fs/ext2fs-lib/fsimage.so from install of halvm-xen-libs-4.5.3-1.fc23.x86_64 conflicts with file from package xen-libs-4.5.3-8.fc23.x86_64
...

I get about 15 of these conflicts.

I havent used Fedora or dnf before, but wanted to use them in order to start contributing to HaLVM, so bear with me if this is an easy dnf fix

Hi!

Yeah, you can't have both the halvm-xen packages and the xen packages on the same machine. You'll need to 'dnf erase xen' as a first step.

sudo dnf erase xen
No match for argument: xen
Error: No packages marked for removal.

@yemi

The message said conflicts with file from package xen-libs...

So perhaps sudo dnf erase xen-libs.

That did the trick!
