I recently ran "yum update" and encountered a conflict with iptstate requiring libnetfilter.conntrack . OK, that is simple enough; but if I remove iptstate I can then re-install it without any problem. --------------------------------------- [tim@rose ~]$ sudo yum remove iptstate ... iptstate.i586 0:2.2.1-5.fc11 Complete! [tim@rose ~]$ sudo yum install iptstate ... Installed: iptstate.i586 0:2.2.1-5.fc11 Complete! --------------------------------------- Why don't I get the dependency problem here? I still get it if I run "yum update" again. --------------------------------------- [tim@rose ~]$ sudo yum update Loaded plugins: downloadonly, priorities, refresh-packagekit Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check --> Processing Dependency: libnetfilter_conntrack.so.1 for package: iptstate-2.2.1-5.fc11.i586 ---> Package libnetfilter_conntrack.i586 0:0.0.100-1.fc11 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution iptstate-2.2.1-5.fc11.i586 from installed has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: libnetfilter_conntrack.so.1 is needed by package iptstate-2.2.1-5.fc11.i586 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: libnetfilter_conntrack.so.1 is needed by package iptstate-2.2.1-5.fc11.i586 (installed) --------------------------------------- -- Timothy Murphy e-mail: gayleard /at/ eircom.net tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
