Actually, it still isn't. You can force all kinds of things by using

directly. Yum, however, will check packages checksum against what it
has in its

repository:

The question is: is the header checksum incorrect or the package
checksum incorrect? i.e. is it safe to force the transaction?
Thanks,
Richard.
I forced the transaction buy doing:
rpm -Uvh
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/hsqldb-1.8.0.4-3jpp.2.i386.rpm
rpm -Uvh
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/gsf-sharp-0.8.1-1.fc6.i386.rpm
I did that on Thursday last week and have had no ill effects to date
that I can see.
