Take that to list out all the versions you want. Example: yum provides kernel-devel kernel-devel.i686 : Development package for building kernel modules to match the kernel yum list kernel-devel.i686 Available Packages kernel-devel.i586 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 updates kernel-devel.i586 2.6.23.1-42.fc8 fedora kernel-devel.i686 2.6.23.1-42.fc8 fedora kernel-devel.i686 2.6.23.9-85.fc8 updates does this help? -sv _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/yum
