"updatedb"? It has _nothing_ to do with package management at all. It is part of the locate database (package "mlocate"). > I don't know what means "the offending package below /var/cache/ > yum" Then examine the directory structure below /var/cache/yum. For every repository there is a "packages" directory, which contains the downloaded packages. Partial/corrupted downloads can cause problems. A few times before, after initial release packages have been resigned with a different key, which invalidated old checksums and caused download problems, too. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
