i doubt that these few packages need 821 MB
Actually looks like 107Mb is the accumulated total.
Yeah, that's accumulated like you said. Note that the amount is
monotonically increasing.
Since a kernel is
being installed is it possible that there is a separate /boot partition
that actually is full?
Very good point! The kernel appears to need 69MB (71 - 2) and only 66MB
are available on that drive.
Thanks for the help, mystery solved.
In the meantime I attempted to update some packages (but not everything)
and now my yum is broken:
[root@celes ~]# yum install lyx
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ?
import yummain
File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 23, in ?
import yum
File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 21, in ?
import rpm
ImportError: No module named rpm
[root@celes ~]#
*sigh* It's a bad night for yum.

I suppose python must be the culprit...?
Thanks again.
