This sounds like an update-out-of-dep-loop issue that was left outstanding in yum 1.0.X. It's a bit of code left that never got dropped in to fix that situation. Ahh. Any chance of it getting dropped? > Actually, I have another question aswell - not related: Is there a way > of listing rpm's in a particular repository? Like : 'yum list compaq' > yum list available | grep 'reponame' Rats. Yum 1.0.x doesn't list the repo in the 'yum list available'. Here's me output : Name Arch Version ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------- Canna i386 3.5b2-50.as21.1 Canna-devel i386 3.5b2-50.as21.1 Canna-libs i386 3.5b2-50.as21.1 [blah] So I can't grep that out :( I see under 2.x that the repo is listed. Which is great for my ES 3 machines, but not so great for my (hordes of) 2.1 machines.. :( Is this an easy addition? -sv S.
