yum update issue..

[bruce <badouglas@xxxxxxxxx>]

Happy 4th guys..

I have a centos 6.5 box with a yum update error. (I know, this is fed, but thought maybe I could get pointers here on this!)

The laptop runs kernel for elrepo, to be able to use the builtin wifi.

The update process, was the same as usual, as root, run "yum update" never had an issue prior to this.

The error is:
Total                                            90 kB/s | 756 MB    144:00    
Running rpm_check_debug
Running Transaction Test


Transaction Check Error:

Error Summary
-------------

so my question..  how/what do I need to do to resolve the error, and still perfom the updates and not screw up the wifi.

By the way, in the event the wifi does screw up, I've got old spare usb wifi dongles, but I'd prefer to be able to use the onbard wifi. The laptop is a toshiba satellite

Thanks for any pointers!
