hi.. this is geting sort of ridiculous...!!! looked through google.. trying to understand what i may screwed up on... can't seem to make headway... it appears that yum has actually downloaded files to my system. it also appears that i have some sort of FC on the box.. however, the files/rpms that yum put in the /var/cache/yum/basic/packages dir are not installed. as an example, if i do python, i get version 2.2-7. which is what i get if i do 'rpm -q'. however, there is a python-2.3.3-6.i386.rpm which is really what i expected to be loaded.... so something is going wrong/has gone wrong with my attempt at using 'yum upgrade'. btw, as far as i can tell, the files in the '../packages' dir are the right ones from the FC2 download.. if i could get them to actually be installed!!!!! pointers/criticisms/thoughts/etc... are there any yum gurus out here, that i could talk to??? i'm pretty sure that with the right person, this is probably a 5-10 min conversation, followed by a 'got it!'.. thanks bruce bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
