However it did not work as expected: yum clean Gathering header information file(s) from server(s) Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Base Server: Fedora Core 2 - i386 - Released Updates Finding updated packages Cleaning packages and old headers yum update 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 Resolving dependencies Damaged Header /var/cache/yum/updates-released/headers/koffice-4-1.3.5-0.FC2.1.i386.hdr Bad Header for pkg koffice.i386 trying to get headers for the nevral - exiting Sorry but i am not at all familiar with yum.
