Ok. Logged in under FC4 and doing a 511Meg yum update now.
I DO have the old fateful FC3 yum log. Can't copy it here yet (my nfs
mounts not working yet on the new fc4 upgraded server).
But one line of the log reads "installing mysql 3.x"). [Which it
didn't. Just dl'd the RPM's.]
And after that, two lines: 1. "erased mysql server". 2. "erased mysql
client".
If this ain't a bug, what is?
If its a bug it should be in bugzilla. File it along with the yum log
output. You can also post to the yum devel list if it requires further
discussions

But whose bug is it when a distro package tries and fails to replace
some non-standard package that isn't even split into the same RPMs?
When this is reported it that can be analysed and the blame
appropriately assigned to the mysql packages, yum or the user ;-)
