McKinley, Work around this FC2 problem by putting: exclude=ppp in the "Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Released updates" stanza of /etc/yum.conf and then, barring other difficulties, "yum update" should run successfully. Take that line out of /etc/yum.conf sooner or later, or the "ppp" package will never again be updated from that repository when a new version is released.
