OK, that worked for me

    yum clean all
    yum --disablerepo=\* --enablerepo=updates update

Should this be done on a weekly/monthly basis? " yum clean all"

Or are my repos messed up?


repo id         repo name                           status          priority
=======         =========                           ======          ========
extras          CentOS-5 - Extras                   enabled         1
base            CentOS-5 - Base                     enabled         1

c5-media        CentOS-5 - Media                    disabled        2

kbs-CentOS-Extr CentOS.Karan.Org-EL5 - Stable       enabled         12
rpmforge        Red Hat Enterprise 5 - RPMforge.net enabled         15
updates         CentOS-5 - Updates                  enabled         99
c5-testing      CentOS-5 Testing                    disabled        99

I'm guessing updates should be priority 1 instead of 99?

Thank you for the help!!
