it's not like i need to drag this out any further but, once i bypassed the aforementioned kernel packages error when yum updating a new FC4 install, i ran into this bug (which i remember from before): ... Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Check Error: file /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/common/1.png conflicts between attempted installs of kdelibs-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 and kde-i18n-Polish-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 file /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/common/10.png conflicts between attempted installs of kdelibs-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 and kde-i18n-Polish-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 file /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/common/2.png conflicts between attempted installsof kdelibs-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 and kde-i18n-Polish-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 file /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/common/3.png conflicts between attempted installsof kdelibs-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 and kde-i18n-Polish-3.4.2-0.fc4.1 ... so, even though this is a KDE issue, who should technically be responsible for ensuring that two different packages created for the same release of FC don't generate conflicts? i'm just curious. rday
