Some time ago I've started creating reports that show the broken deps for the stable dist + Updates plus the differences when adding Test Updates, e.g. http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/test/2010-September/093511.html In the case of xulrunner and firefox, it was pushed to stable with a separate package (nss, nspr and others) being stuck in updates-testing due to causing broken dependencies. You can also visit the Fedora Updates System (bodhi) web page and look up the update tickets and their state where users often comment on broken deps, too. > > Doing a "yum clean all" and "rpm --rebuilddb" did not fix the rpm database > > problem either. > Most likely while updating tigervnc, yum didn't get to cleanup stage > (failed, computer rebooted, etc) so the old version is marked as installed. > You can clean it by running "yum remove tigervnc-server*" then "yum > install tigervnc-server". Take a look at the yum-complete-transaction command as well as the package-cleanup --cleandupes command from yum-utils. There are more helper features provided by package-cleanup. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
