Hi. I've finally gotten around to installing yum and trying to update from 8.0 to 9. I've read that I just have to point yum to the rhl 9 repositories and it should work, but it failed with a dependency not provided. Here is the output: tom@localhost:[root@localhost root]# yum upgrade Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - i386 - freshrpms Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - i386 - os Server: Red Hat Linux 9 - i386 - updates Finding updated packages Downloading needed headers getting /var/cache/yum/freshrpms/headers/yum-0-2.0.3-5.rh.fr.i386.hdr Finding obsoleted packages Resolving dependencies .package gnome-vfs2 needs gnome-mime-data >= 2.0.0-11 (not provided) tom@localhost:[root@localhost root]# uname -a Linux localhost.localdomain 2.4.20-20.8 #1 Mon Aug 18 14:39:22 EDT 2003 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux tom@localhost:[root@localhost root]# rpm -q yum yum-2.0.3-1.rh.fr tom@localhost:[root@localhost root]# rpm -q rpm rpm-4.1.1-1.8x tom@localhost:[root@localhost root]# cat /etc/yum.conf # $Id: yum-rh.conf,v 1.1 2003/08/18 16:48:27 dude Exp $ [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest distroverpkg=redhat-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 [os] #name=Red Hat Linux $releasever - $basearch - os #baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/redhat/$releasever/$basearch/os name=Red Hat Linux 9 - $basearch - os baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/redhat/9/$basearch/os [updates] #name=Red Hat Linux $releasever - $basearch - updates #baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/redhat/$releasever/$basearch/updates name=Red Hat Linux 9 - $basearch - updates baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/redhat/9/$basearch/updates [freshrpms] #name=Red Hat Linux $releasever - $basearch - freshrpms #baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/redhat/$releasever/$basearch/freshrpms name=Red Hat Linux 9 - $basearch - freshrpms baseurl=http://ayo.freshrpms.net/redhat/9/$basearch/freshrpms ---- I tried deleting gnome-vfs2, but that didn't work. I also tried "yum update" to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks, Tom __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo! Shopping - with improved product search http://shopping.yahoo.com
