So far, I have seen this in a couple of situations. The conclusion is drawn from the fact that the pattern you see in the previous email somehow is seeping out of the woodwork. This actually means: > libxml2-python-2.6.21-4.el3 -> libxml2-devel-2.6.21-3.el3.pyv > python2.4-devel-2 -> python2.4-devel-2.4-1pydotorg The packages on the left are written out in the error. This is what _processReq() thinks they are inside of depsolve.py. However, the actual packages are named on the right. There *may* be a true problem with the underlying packages and transaction. But the above error prevents Yum from clearly explaining what the problem is. If you still need an example, what follows is another scenario and it's pretty long, so bear with me: I have setup a system with PyVault's packages on a CentOS 3 system. This puts a python24 on CentOS along with dependencies that enable Yum to run. One day, I decide to rollback the change and back out the changes: $ yum remove python24 Technically, this should remove all dependencies, including yum, based on python(abi) = 2.4, etc. etc. However, I get the following result with the aforementioned error spewed forth in great quantities (short conclusion follows the output): ============================================== [root@plain root]# yum -d10 remove python24 Yum Version: 2.4.0 COMMAND: yum -d10 Installroot: / Ext Commands: python24 Setting up Remove Process Reading Local RPMDB Resolving Dependencies 1128070284.46 --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

I might have to probe deeper into the pkgSack to see if it's getting corrupted, caching gone awry, or something. If you have any ideas, let me know. -- -jeff
