Folks The system involved is a 32-bit system, installed via the net about a week ago. The command yum update encountered the following diagonstic Error: Package: yaf-1.3.2-1.el6.rf.x86_64 (@rpmforge) Requires: libfixbuf-0.9.0.so.8()(64bit) Removing: libfixbuf-0.9.0-1.el6.rf.x86_64 (@rpmforge) libfixbuf-0.9.0.so.8()(64bit) Updated By: libfixbuf-1.0.1-1.el6.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge) Not found You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest The repositories I use are: base epel extras rpmforge updates virtualbox I wonder if using priorities would help? Rpmforge is "supposed" to be non-conflicting, but then.... Please let me know what I should do. David
