Newbie to Fedora & YUM here; FC2.

I have Mono version 1.0.4 installed via YUM.  I changed the source in
yum.conf to point to the archive that contains the latest version of
Mono (1.1.3), instead of the previous archive that had 1.0.4.  I do "yum
update mono-core" and it says mono-core is the latest version.  It did
it's little header update thing like it's supposed to... now... um...
what am I doing wrong?  How do I update software with Yum?
Thanx,

You'll probably need to send more details to get a good answer. You might start by doing a "yum info mono-core" to see if it really did download an updated header. It should give you information about the installed package and any available packages. You probably should send you yum.conf file, or at least say what repository you are trying to use. The "yum update <pkg_name>" is the right command to update a package, something else is going on. Also, you might try browsing to the repo you are trying to use and try to locate the package manually to see if it is actually there.

Well, "yum info mono-core" returned that the latest version is 1.1.3 and the installed version is 1.0.4, but "yum update mono-core" returned that "mono-core" is already the latest version. The yum repository is http://go-mono.com/archive/1.1.3. I suppose I could always just uninstall and reinstall Mono alltogether. :-P
