But it is a severe problem (a real nightmare in addition to dependency hell) for many users outside these lists who don't know what the cause of these RPM lock-ups is and who cannot believe that there hasn't been a fix released yet. Makes me sick when newbies (or simply, Linux users who don't know a different work-around) advise others to reboot their machine in order to correct this. - -- -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+NBt/0iMVcrivHFQRAnolAJsEcZy/qoxUTHcOGO+IIt2Tj519qACghF8p F5cj0bEdlF4XRGdscc3jlfI= =kzgt -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
