Why do you have in this picture 0-2.5.90-19, 0-2.5.90-17 and
glibc.i686?   Do you have indeed the later installed?  Maybe
the problem is in 'skip-broken' plugin which has troubles in
a multilib situation?

I did not notice anything like the above so far but on my test
rig I do not have any x86 packages installed.
