Actually, my standard routine is to do "yum clean all," then "rpm --rebuilddb," then "updatedb," and only then "yum update" each time. On the theory that I might have forgotten that somehow, I've just commanded "yum install kdepim" again. It asked my OK to install it and one dependency (kdepim-libs) -- and did it! I don't know what means "the offending package below /var/cache/ yum" I don't know whether today's success with kdepim means that I did forget the clianup yesterday, or that something has been fixed overnight; but I'll go try the other things that were removed with kdepim. -- Beartooth Staffwright, PhD, Neo-Redneck Linux Convert Fedora 8; Alpine 0.99999, Pan 0.132; Privoxy 3.0.6; Dillo 0.8.6, Galeon 2.0.3, Epiphany 2.20, Opera 9.24, Firefox 2.0 Remember I know precious little of what I am talking about. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
