Paul: This is not clear to me - my machine that produced all the problems over the past days is a fresh install, updated daily over the past 2 weeks. Yumex and SELinux policies are at current versions from Core/Updates/Extras - Yumex is ver yumex-1.0.1-1.0.fc5; are you saying that I should have selectively updated Yumex and SELinux before running any other updates from day 1? On a different note, I spent some time looking at the current state of the other package managers out there, last night. KYUM appears to be stuck at 7.5, the version I filed the bug report on about munging the Livna repo files; SmartPM has a faq now, which seems to be pretty good documentation about how to set it up, with good explanations about all the settings - I didn't try setting up anything yet, but I ran it last night; it found updates for OpenOffice, but did that twice, downloading 100mb of stuff on each run - this is on the install rpm from extras with the fedora smart config file. -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
