So if the adobe repo. provided "foo" and fedora provided "foo" then when yum picked "foo" it'd get it from fedora, always. The problem you have is that yum thinks "AdobeReader_sve" is a better package than "libstdc++" and there's only one place to get that package from. If you provide full debug info. "yum -d9 install libstdc++.so.6" we can take a look at why it thinks it's better ... but I have an idea, and I doubt we can "fix" it. If you can't just "install libstdc++" or Adobe don't fix their packages, you could always start an RFE for filtering provides (ie. So you could say "don't allow libstdc++* to be provided from the adobe repo.) ... but I'm not sure how hard that'll be atm. -- James Antill -- james@xxxxxxx _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
