But if I run yum-complete-transaction it says there are 805 packages scheduled to be removed. This does not seem like something I want to do on my production server, so I am wondering if there is a way to clean the yum database so I don't get the warning below without completing the transaction?? "There are unfinished transactions remaining. You mightconsider running yum-complete-transaction first to finish them." -- Troy Knabe knabe@xxxxxxxxxxx yum clean all Runs yum clean packages and yum clean headers, yum clean metadata and yum clean dbcache as above. OR you can rebuild the rpm database cd /var/lib tar -czf rpm.broken.`date +%Y%m%d-%R`.tgz rpm/ cd rpm/ rm -f __db.00* rpm --rebuilddb Phebe Mertes 210-301-6271 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
