Upgrading Centos 5.3 -> 5.4 - Discuss

26 Oct 2009


      Still the same problems I'm afraid. I read the release notes and 
followed them to the letter.
I'm now seeing:
Finished Dependency Resolution

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                       package-cleanup --dupes
                       rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I've installed package cleanup and tried the suggested combinations, 
except the --skip-broken option. Any thoughts are appreciated.
