The other option is to discontinue using atrpms. ... or discontinue using yum? ;) I am too old for flaming, and Seth is also allowed to have a bad day, so let me be "icky" and get that over with. :( Anyway the changes _are_ trivial, and while I generally avoid packaging non-released software when there is a working released piece (or to better place it, I avoid publishing such packages), the 20030927 daily behaved very nice for me in the last couple of days (only tested RH9), so go grab it from here http://atrpms.physik.fu-berlin.de/name/yum-daily/ I still think it would be nice to see yum split into a yum and a yum-conf package, so that the configless yum rpm could be used verbatim in any repo. But that's really a packaging style question and nothing to get excited about. BTW I wouldn't mind RH7.3 and RH8.0 users testing it, and reporting back. I have patched yum/rpm to build the 2.x series on any RedHat release >= 7.3, but I haven't had the time yet to test on the older RHs.

No problem. rpm dependency problems can be very complex and the surfacing errors/warnings are not always helpful. -- Axel.Thimm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
