I wonder whether the change to https is causing my grief?
It was. I changed https to http in the fedora and updates repos and the
sun shines again.

It's a little early to say it's summer:
gnome-python2-gnomeprint-2.26.0-3.fc11.x86_64 from fedora has depsolving
problems
  --> Missing Dependency: python(abi) = 2.6 is needed by package
gnome-python2-gnomeprint-2.26.0-3.fc11.x86_64 (fedora)
Skip-broken round 5

but it's having a good hard think about it.


Did you 'clean' yum before you ran the update after you installed the
Fedora 11 release package? It sounds like you did not.
I did.
"yum clean metadata" was inefective, so I tried "yum clean all" and that did not work either.


Do a   yum-complete-transaction   and see if anything is still remaining
to be installed.

I didn't think of that, but there was no reason to think there was a problem it could fix.

Install   yum-utils    and search for duplicate entries and problems.

package-cleanup --dupes  If there are any clean them with

Did that, found nothing.

package-cleanup --cleandupes

package-cleanup --problems  will find any problems such as
broken/missing dependencies and such.

Found a problem, fixed it, still no go.



Good luck.


I removed the libflash-whatever package and one or two others of little consequence; now it's downloading 2.2 Gbytes. Hopefully, from the free zone.
