Hello,
In an earlier thread i reported a problem with yum update but got no reply so i rebooted after the failed yum update and tried it again. This time the output from yum update executed as root is:
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Base Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Released Updates Finding updated packages Downloading needed headers rmt-0-0.4b39-1.FC2.i386.h 100% |=========================| 4.4 kB 00:00 squid-7-2.5.STABLE7-1.FC2 100% |=========================| 31 kB 00:00 dump-0-0.4b39-1.FC2.i386. 100% |=========================| 5.4 kB 00:00 kernel-0-2.6.10-1.12_FC2. 100% |=========================| 202 kB 00:00 kernel-smp-0-2.6.10-1.12_ 100% |=========================| 202 kB 00:00 kernel-doc-0-2.6.10-1.12_ 100% |=========================| 35 kB 00:00 kernel-sourcecode-0-2.6.1 100% |=========================| 495 kB 00:00 kernel-smp-0-2.6.10-1.12_ 100% |=========================| 203 kB 00:00 kernel-0-2.6.10-1.12_FC2. 100% |=========================| 203 kB 00:00 Resolving dependencies ....Unable to satisfy dependencies Package php-ldap needs php = 4.3.8-2.1, this is not available. Package php-mbstring needs php = 4.3.8-2.1, this is not available.
How do I fix this?
What happened the first time was that yum update froze during its operation. It stopped at the point: xpdf 100 % done 121/261 There was no initial conflicts when it started and /var/logs/yum.log only has entries from my last successful yum update in november.
If there is more info needed to answer my question then please post it.
Try installing as many updates as you can using "yum update rmt dump squid etc. ..."
When you're left with just the ones that won't work, try "yum clean" and then try "yum update" again.
