Hi I just discovered a problem when trying to upgrade my system with yum. One of the repositories happened to include some packages with unresolved dependencies, specificly there were an updated alsa-kmdl package but the updated kernel-package on which it depended was missing. This caused yum to just give up: Resolving dependencies ..package alsa-kmdl-2.4.20-19.23.rh9.at needs /boot/vmlinux-2.4.20-19.23.rh9.at (not provided) package nvidia-graphics-kmdl-2.4.20-19.23.rh9.at needs /boot/vmlinux-2.4.20-19.23.rh9.at (not provided) Allthough the packages alsa-kmdl and nvidia-graphics-kmdl could of course not be installed, I think yum should upgrade the other packages. Doing the upgrade with apt causes the named packages to be held back, and everything else to be upgraded properly. Could the same behaviour be implemented in yum? Or would it not be possible without reimplementing the whole dependency-handeling inside yum? -- Ragnar Kj?rstad
