If it works, fine. If not, uou may have hit the notorious "hanging rpm" problem. If so, go to a separate tab (or just do a Ctrl-Z) and do: # pgrep -fl rpm to identify the possible culprit(s), followed by # pkill <name> (or "kill -9 <pid>") and if that doesn't work, then # pkill -9 <name> Once that's done, do: # rm /var/lib/rpm/__db.* and try again. (Personally I prefer to use "yum update" from the command line so I can see what's going on. PackageKit is too "user-friendly" for my taste). poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
