Hi List. I have been off line for nearly two weeks due to my broad band connection failing. As soon as I got my connection up I went to the Software updater to check for any up dates and as expected it gave me a long list. First I selected all the packages but kept getting error messages complaining about unresolved dependencies. I then selected each package one at a time and get the same unresolved dependencies message for each package (I have tried the first 12 packages so far). I thought the package updater was supposed to sort out the dependencies automatically? Any ideas whats wrong? john
You might try to open a root terminal and run yum clean all. Maybe there are old headers left over since the time you last updated that it is using as reference to packages.
After cleaning up the headers, you might as well try running yum update from the CLI since you are already there. You will probably get more descriptive error outputs from the output of yum if it still fails.
