Will,

I appologize for bothering you but I'm trying to do some testing on my newly
kickstarted fc6t3 system. I went to the repo file in
/etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-updates-testing.repo and changed enabled=0 to enabled=1.
All I get is an error (see below) when I do yum update. I've been searching for
the solution to this and it's how I found this posting.

Did I do something wrong? Does your writing apply to me? Should I just cool my
heels?

Regards and THANKS for your time spent dealing with this email.

George...
