I'm having a similar problem, I tried to upgrade to FC3 with yum on a remote machine, and there were dozens of dependency problems so it aborted without installing anything. so I did #rpm -Uvh --force fedora-release-2-4.i386.rpm #yum clean all #rpm --rebuilddb ALSO, before attempting the upgrade to FC3, I upgraded to the latest yum version. Should I roll back the yum version, if so, what is the best method for that? here is what happens with #yum upgrade after I did the above: COMMAND: yum upgrade Installroot: / Setting up Upgrade Process Setting up Repo: fedora-us-2-stable Baseurl(s) for repo: ['http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora.us/fedora/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.stable'] repomd.xml 100% |=========================| 903 B 00:00 Setting up Repo: fedora-us-2 Baseurl(s) for repo: ['http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora.us/fedora/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.os'] repomd.xml 100% |=========================| 903 B 00:00 Setting up Repo: fedora-us-2-updates Baseurl(s) for repo: ['http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora.us/fedora/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.updates'] repomd.xml 100% |=========================| 903 B 00:00 Reading repository metadata in from local files Setting up Package Sacks primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 171 kB 00:00 MD Read : ################################################## 550/550 fedora-us-: ################################################## 550/550 primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 517 kB 00:01 MD Read : ################################################## 1619/1619 fedora-us-: ################################################## 1619/1619 primary.xml.gz 100% |=========================| 151 kB 00:00 MD Read : ################################################## 401/401 fedora-us-: ################################################## 401/401 Reading Local RPMDB Building updates object putting kdegraphics-devel in complex update putting kernel in complex update putting cups-devel in complex update putting postgresql-libs in complex update putting cups-libs in complex update putting postgresql in complex update putting postgresql-server in complex update putting squid in complex update putting openssl in complex update putting cups in complex update putting kdegraphics in complex update putting glibc in complex update putting kernel in complex update processing kdegraphics-devel.i386 processing kernel.i686 processing cups-devel.i386 processing postgresql-libs.i386 processing cups-libs.i386 processing postgresql.i386 processing postgresql-server.i386 processing squid.i386 processing openssl.i686 processing cups.i386 processing kdegraphics.i386 processing glibc.i686 processing kernel.i686 Resolving Dependencies 1110306533.54 --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.
