That doesn't work with a fresh install of 4.2 (from the Linux Magazine cover
DVD, April '06). 'yum update' gives the following output:
--------------------------
# yum update

I encountered this problem a long time ago but haven't had time to look at it
more closely since. Now would be a good time to solve it, so I'd welcome any
ideas.
Cheers,
