There's one package that I can't get upgraded, and it's driving me up
the wall because every time I run an update via yum or yumex, I have to
remember to exclude it: firefox. Here's the results of my latest try:
Transaction check error:
file /usr/lib/firefox/browser/defaults/preferences from install of
firefox-22.0-1.fc19.i686 conflicts with file from package
firefox-22.0-1.fc17.i686
I tried using swap:
yum swap firefox\*.fc17.i686 firefox\*fc.19.i686
because the man page said that that was simply a short form of
remove/install, but yum interpreted it as an update. Maybe I'll have to
download the file and use rpm to do it, but there should[1] be a way to
force it via yum.
[1]Well, I think there should be; if you disagree, I'd be willing to
discuss it and maybe change my mind if your reason's good enough. Do
note, however, that rpm does allow --force.
