thank you so much

but i do agree with that other guy that there is no point in putting stuff on the update channels that cant even be ran yet becuase it uses packages that we can not get it makes no sence what is gained by having it out there just to make people have to type some more tags on there update command really

anyone know some where that i can comment on this to a dev

This isn't yum's fault, this is just what happens when you use rawhide -
some packages get pushed out before their dependecies are properly met.
This has been mentioned over and over again, and should probably be part
of the Release Notes or something for test releases.

yum --exclude=$package1 --exclude=$package2 $command will allow you to
update everything else but the kernel. Here, looking at what it's asking
for reveals that you have old kernel modules that haven't been updated
for the latest kernel release, so yum --exclude=kernel update.
