I recently installed Fedora 24 Workstation from the Live DVD and ever since have been getting a lot of software installation transaction errors due to file conflicts between the 32 bit and 64 bit versions when downloading dependent packages. A very similar question was asked here
Shared doc files in dependencies causing transaction errors
but the answer has not helped me because when I run dnf upgrade my system is up to date.
The issue appears to be that the 64 bit versions on my system are older than the 32 bit versions that are trying to be installed.
For example, here are some dependency conflicts while trying to download Skype:
Error: Transaction check error:

....
Is there a way to force Fedora to download the latest versions of the 64 bit packages to match the latest 32 bit versions that are available?
