do not top-post, however, now it does no longer matter... one major rule for dist-upgrades is to remove/disbale all packages and repos which may introduce troubles before you can install anything after the sucessful upgrade and have only to care not remove packages needed by the basesystem (needs sometimes knowledge) __________________ i had dist-upgrades where i simply had to "rpm -e --nodpes whatever" for packages knowing to be not rellay important and even in such cases most of them are pulled as dep while the upgrade is running this may happen if you are up-to-date with your installation and the target dist-version or mirror is behind in some cases never used DVD/ANaconda/Preupgrade except two messed up upgrades compared with some hundret successful dist-upgrades via yum in the last 4 years (yes the some hundret is true) Am 31.05.2012 00:17, schrieb Quicksort: > Thank you, Sam, but how should I proceed ? > Also, if I disable Adobe' s Yum repository > can I re-enable it later (how ?) so as to get > flashplayer updates. > > Thanks. > Le mercredi 30 mai 2012 à 18:02 -0400, Sam Varshavchik a écrit : >> Quicksort writes: >> >>> Platform: F15 x64 (—>F17) >>> >>> Hello everybody, >>> >>> Preupgrade aborts upon the following: >>> >>> “Failure: repodata/filelists.xml.gz >>> from preupgrade-adobe-linux-i386 >>> (Errno 256).
