Thanks! That's not a bug. Mysterious and broken behavior are expected when you mix components from uncoordinated repositories. And when you have multiple 3rd party repositories enabled for yum, packages with the same name will update from whichever has the newest version. Yum doesn't care that updating from a different repo than the package was originally installed from is likely to actually get a somewhat different and incompatible package - it only cares about the name and version number. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
