Did I cross you at some time, Mr. Davidson? If so, I'm sorry for all the egregious harm I've caused you. In fact, I was not asking for help upgrading from F9 to F10. That was just big-picture information about why I was working with F9 at all. A careful reading of my original post will reveal that I was writing to the list because yum was refusing to update a fresh install of F9. So I was asking for help resolving an issue with yum completely unrelated to upgrading. Which help I received, by the way. In any case, thanks for your proxy indignation on behalf of another poster. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
