Hi,
When trying yum with ATrpms, I find that dependencies get not resolved and this makes yum almost unusable.
Is there a fix ?
Don't take this wrong, but yeah.
rpm -ve --nodeps `rpm -vq | grep AT` (remove all "AT" rpms) yum --disablerepo atrpms update (update)
There's been many an argument over what is, and is not needed to fix that repo, and I've been right where you are...which is why I just don't use it anymore. Google the wars and rumors of wars...but don't bother.
The "AT" there might be lower case, instead...you get the idea.
I think that this is a scarry suggestion but it may be the only way to go.
Yesterday it was recommended to try smart package manager from http://smartpm.org. RPM at DAG as a beta. May be a bit nicer than the nodeps.
I have removed atrpms from my yum.conf file.
