how annoying it is...When is this final FC4 release going to come out and will it even work by then? I'm just about to give up on fedora altogether and move to Suse or just go and build my own distro. Didn't want to rant about it but, considering this thing is just about to be released, it's just very annoying to have the updates not working as well as simply screwing up the system (the last update apparently also apparently broke the console-based logins into my system, together with somewhat questionable general system performance - various annoying crashes of kde etc)... basically, I'm quite disappointed in this whole fedora experience of mine.

Any suggestions?A general suggestion is that if something break dependencies in testing stuff, which happens and surely will happen many times more, then to check where these troubles are coming from and exclude relevant packages from updates until other thing will catch. 'rpm -qf /path/to/something' will tell you what "owns" given files.[root@dualbox ~]# yum update .......... --> Running transaction check Error: Missing Dependency: libijs.so()(64bit) is needed by package gimp-print Error: Missing Dependency: libgs.so.7()(64bit) is needed by package ImageMagick-perlAdd --exclude='ghosts*' to your yum command, until versions of gimp-print and ImageMagick recompiled with new libraries show up, and that will cover this problemError: Missing Dependency: openoffice.org-core = 1:1.9.100-1 is needed by package openoffice.org-pyunoThe current version is 1.9.104-2 and it looks like that openoffice.org-pyuno was dropped from x86_64 set (it is available in i386 and _all_ openoffice packages are i386 only) together with python.i386 which is required to support that. If this was a deliberate decision that means that either you will have live with a reduced functionality on x86_64 side or add required packages from i386. If you are not doing the later then you have to deinstall packages you happen to have on your system and for which newer versions are not available. As simple as that. Michal
If you don't know how to use a development-branch repository, you shouldn't try. What yum is currently pulling from is NOT the FC4 branch. FC4 has already branched away and Rawhide is now rolling towards FC5. I do, however, have a hard time believing that your problems are really all the fault of Rawhide, because some of the problems you named aren't common to the other testers. If you're having such a hard time, try a release version. If that doesn't sound suitable, just don't let the door hit you in the ass. Either way, no excuse for top-posting. -- Patrick "The N-Man" Barnes nman64@xxxxxxxxx www.n-man.com --
