Hi!
running a Centos 4.5 system here. This week when I do "yum update" I get this output:
# yum update Loading "protectbase" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories kbs-CentOS-Extras 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 pidgin 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 rpmforge 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 addons 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00 extras 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00 Reading repository metadata in from local files 122 packages excluded due to repository protections Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

which is a problem I've never encountered before.
One odd thing about it is that I've ALREADY GOT libx264.so.54, it comes as part of the x264 rpm.
I also noticed today that a 4.5 box there is having the same problem, so I'm left to assume that there's something wrong with this last batch of updates??????
Advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I believe this was posted to this very list a few days ago. Try turning off your extras repository by default and see what happens.

Sorry, I must have missed that posting.
Yes, turning off kb-centos-extras does resolve the problem.
Thanks!
Does that mean that repository is hosed and shouldn't be used, or what?
(I know just enough about yum to know that I don't know very much...)

Nothing is wrong with kb-centos-extras. But it is a good idea to read this page:
http://wiki.centos.org/Repositories
to learn about safe use of 3rd party repositories.
If you are still having difficulties with the update, try cleaning yum (yum clean all, for example).

I think you mean turning off the rpmforge repository, those packages you seem to be updating are not coming from the kbsingh-CentOS-Extras repo.

Sorry about that - I must have had my head muddled when I posted that (it _was_ mentioned) so shortly after Dag posted his correction in the rpmforge (and then this) list.
Absolutely no slight to KBS intended....

I see the same question has been asked elsewhere and apparently it's fixed now (I think it was a dependency problem in the rpmforge repository):
