Hello Gene,

yum is still showing me 21 packages to update, all from an el5 repo.\
You can figure out what repo that is by "rpm -qi"ing one of the packages that is causing you trouble. Remove all offending packages, then remove the repo rpm (rpm -e rpmforge-release or epel-release or even another one, that is for you to figure out).
After you got rid of the offending packages and repo-release you can now install the correct repo-release for the OS version you are using and add the packages you just removed.
Regards, Leonard.
There are no surviving el5 packages on the system, including in the .repo files of yum.repos.d
But if I fire up yumex, well over half the files presented say they are el5 coming from rpmfusion, but my rpmfusion .repo's are all set for el-6 as can be seen by this:
[root@coyote yum.repos.d]# grep el rpmfusion-*.repo rpmfusion-free- updates.repo:#baseurl=http://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el
But I don't see anything but el-6 above. So something is well and truly knackered. The question is what?
Thanks & Cheers, Gene
yum clean all might help you. Tony Schreiner
It did indeed Tony, thank you. Now it only showed me a fresh yumex and python-kitchen. I installed those, quit it & restarted. but the stuffs I need, like opencascade, still isn't showing in the ALL screen.
Cheers Tony & thanks, Gene
