Bob, Thanks! Uninstalling libgcj did the trick for 99% of my problems; now the only outstanding issue is perl: perl.x86_64 3:5.8.5-12.FC3 updates-released Trying to update per yields: Transaction Check Error: file /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/File/Path.pm from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3 conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/c2ph.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/cpan.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/dprofpp.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/enc2xs.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/find2perl.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/h2ph.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/h2xs.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/libnetcfg.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/perlbug.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/perlcc.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/perlivp.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/piconv.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/pl2pm.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/pod2html.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/pod2latex.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/pod2man.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/pod2text.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/pod2usage.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/podchecker.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/podselect.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/prove.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/psed.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/pstruct.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/s2p.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/splain.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 file /usr/share/man/man1/xsubpp.1.gz from install of perl-5.8.5-12.FC3conflicts with file from package perl-5.8.5-9 When I do 'yum remove perl', I get: --> Processing Dependency: perl(vars) for package: automake17 --> Processing Dependency: perl(Fcntl) for package: perl-libwww-perl --> Processing Dependency: perl(vars) for package: perl-XML-LibXML-Common --> Processing Dependency: perl(Cwd) for package: perl-RPM2 --> Processing Dependency: perl >= 0:5.000 for package: kdelibs And so on and so on seemingly forever. Since perl is so integral to my box, I'm a little spooked about removing it and then re-installing it; I certainly do not want to uninstall all of the packages that depend on perl. Advice? And, just for my knowledge, are these issues a problem with yum or a problem with FC3/multilib?
