Do you think you're mixing enough 3rd party repositories there? You've got 2 that I wouldn't touch at all... ATrpms stable, and ATrpms testing. ATrpms has a nasty reputation for replacing system packages, and generally being unstable (meaning you can quickly wreck your system using it). > however I don't understand this bug: > # yum install rpm > Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) > Server: CentOS-3.3 - Addons > Server: ATrpms for rhel 3 stable > Server: ATrpms for rhel 3 testing > Server: CentOS-3.3 - Base > Server: CentOS-3.3 - Extras > Server: Dag RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux > Server: dries el3 repo > Server: CentOS-3.3 - Extras > Server: kde-redhat.org (kde-stable) > Server: kde-redhat.org (kde-stable-all) > Server: CentOS-3.3 - Updates > Finding updated packages > Downloading needed headers > Resolving dependencies > .......Unable to satisfy dependencies > Package rpm-libs needs rpm = 4.2.3-24_nonptl, this is not available. > # rpm -q rpm > rpm-4.2.3-10 > # ls /var/cache/yum/base/headers/rpm-libs* > /var/cache/yum/base/headers/rpm-libs-0-4.2.3-21_nonptl.i386.hdr > /var/cache/yum/base/headers/rpm-libs-0-4.2.3-24_nonptl.i386.hdr > > I noticed lots of bugs in yum. This is really annoying. This looks like the rpm-libs package its trying to update doesn't have a matching rpm for rpm. I'd say that this is likely due to the number of repositories you're using, and likely a direct result of mixing ATrpms with all the other repos. This goes back to what I mentioned earlier about doing destructive things to your system. It's not a problem of yum, etc.. but rather the expected result of mixing so many repositories, and in particular 2 very unstable repos. -- This message has been double ROT13 encoded for security.
