Did a fresh install of FC3, ran updates with standard FC3 base and updates-released repos successfully, then added my favorite 3rd party repos (dag, freshrpms, gstreamer, atrpms-stable, newrpms, local, macromedia.mplug.org) and tried to update again. Got numerous seemingly-bogus conflicts, so decided to give yum-2.1.13 from rawhide a shot at it. Grabbed the SRPM and rebuilt from source for FC3. Things improved considerably after upgrade to rawhide yum-2.1.13 - far fewer conflicts reported - but yum still tried to install two versions of opensp. Tried to force just the opensp package with # yum install opensp And that completed OK. Then tried again and yum wanted to "update" opensp to a version older than the installed one. ... # yum upgrade ... several KB of output/errors deleted ... Finished Transaction Test Transaction Check Error: package opensp-1.5.1-9.rhfc3.at (which is newer than opensp-1.5-0_6.1.rhfc3.at) is already installed Then tried # yum --exclude=opensp upgrade and that allowed the upgrade to complete. Then # yum upgrade returned with no further packages to upgrade. Have captured the logs of the entire process but they're a bit long to include here. # ll -rt yum.* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 76302 Feb 1 17:24 yum.err1 # Old yum -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 73307 Feb 1 18:08 yum.err2 # New yum -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3108 Feb 1 18:12 yum.kludge1 # install -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 65588 Feb 1 18:17 yum.err3 # upgrade -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 84989 Feb 1 18:31 yum.kludge2 # exclude -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1932 Feb 1 18:33 yum.ok # success Not sure it this should go in Fedora, ATrpms, or yum bugzilla; or just be written off as another inter-repo dependency glitch. Any advice on where to go with it appreciated. Phil
