Hi, I am running a CentOS 4.3 machine. I wish to move on to 4.4. My problem is that I have some 60 duplicate packages listed below. The kernel and gpg-pubkey packages are different versions of the same (none for the gpg) architecture. All the rest are a x86_64 and i[356]86 pairs. 1. Is this a problem? 2. If yes, what should I do? a) remove the duplicates (the i[356]86) and then 4.3 -> 4.4? b) 4.3 -> 4.4 and only after that remove duplicates? c) something else? 3. How to actually do the removal? Simply 'yum remove ...' or are there some packages that require special care? 4. I have enabled the dries, kbsingh, and rpmforge, repositories for few packages (acroread, pine,...). However, I didn't keep track which packages come from those repos so I can't apply the 'includepkgs' instruction on them. What's the easiest way to recover that information? (Default 'yum list installed' doesn't provide the repository.) Thanks in advance, Itay ################################################################ List of packages follows: prompt> rpm -qa --qf "%{NAME}\n" | sort | uniq -d ################################################################ alsa-lib atk audiofile audit-libs bzip2-libs compat-libstdc++-33 cracklib cracklib-dicts cyrus-sasl db4 dbus dbus-glib device-mapper e2fsprogs esound evolution-data-server expat fontconfig freetype gamin GConf2 gdbm glib2 glibc gnome-vfs2 gnutls gpg-pubkey gtk2 hal kernel kernel-devel kernel-smp krb5-libs libart_lgpl libbonobo libcap libgcc libgcrypt libgnome libgpg-error libIDL libjpeg libpng libselinux libsoup libstdc++ libtiff libxml2 openldap openssl ORBit2 pam pango popt redhat-artwork startup-notification xorg-x11-libs xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL zlib ################################################################ End of list ################################################################ _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
