What causes this? Cheers. This is caused by an update to the "updates" repository during the half-hour that yum considered its cache to be valid after its last run. Waiting and trying again will fix it, as will "yum clean metadata" or "yum clean cache". Installing my stablemirror plugin can prevent it from repeating, as stablemirror always checks the current state of the repo. (Well, there would still be trouble when an update happens during a run of yum, but trying again immediately will take care of it.) ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/> -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
