Hi! I've got three Centos-5.3 machines. one of' em ran the latest updates without trouble. the other two are giving me grief. both giving the same error: # yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: ftp.lug.udel.edu * updates: mirror.icpl.org * addons: www.gtlib.gatech.edu * extras: mirror.highspeedweb.net Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package kexec-tools.i386 0:1.102pre-56.el5_3.2 set to be updated ---> Package kernel.i686 0:2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 set to be installed ---> Package audit-libs.i386 0:1.7.7-6.el5_3.3 set to be updated ---> Package kernel-headers.i386 0:2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 set to be updated ---> Package file.i386 0:4.17-15.el5_3.1 set to be updated ---> Package audit-libs-python.i386 0:1.7.7-6.el5_3.3 set to be updated ---> Package kernel-devel.i686 0:2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 set to be installed ---> Package sos.noarch 0:1.7-9.16.el5_3.5 set to be updated ---> Package pango.i386 0:1.14.9-5.el5.centos set to be updated ---> Package audit.i386 0:1.7.7-6.el5_3.3 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: /usr/share/magic.mime for package: httpd --> Finished Dependency Resolution httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.i386 from installed has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: /usr/share/magic.mime is needed by package httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.i386 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: /usr/share/magic.mime is needed by package httpd-2.2.3-22.el5.centos.i386 (installed) I don't get this: /usr/share/magic/mime exists. it's not trying to install or update httpd. where is it getting this dependency problem from?
