I can't figure it out. Why is yum needing to update a missing rpm?
By the way I also tried yum clean all.
You need to do a lot more reading before you do anything.....
You need to learn about the naming of packages as opposed to the rpm
file name....
A quick way to know what packages you have installed would be to do...
rpm -qa | grep vlc
This will list out any packages with the name *vlc* (you do know what
an * is...).
There never is a package name of "vlc-core.i386" or
"0:0.8.6d-3.lvn8". Package names cannot have spaces in them.
I used this and this to no avail:
rpm -qa | grep vlc
[root@localhost ~]# rpm -qa | grep *vlc*
[root@localhost ~]#
Well this funcky YUM is showing packages that do not exist to UPDATE?
What can be the problem? It is way above my knowledge level. I really do
not want to be that smart.
