Package Manager Denies Permission to Install

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I was installing F10 to one of my boxes, and needed to install some -devel files. I found those on a mirror, in .../Everything/...

Clicking on the link gave the usual 'what do you want to do' message. Clicking install raised a warning about installing as root. I clicked continue....and got a message that I 'didn't have permission to continue' (or words to that effect) and my system, having assumed god-like powers refused to let me install the file!

WTF??? Does anyone know where this little bit of insanity is stored and how to remove it?

        Please let me know if anything I say offends you.
         I may wish to offend you again in the future.
