Hi,
I know that the extra packages don't come with the FC5 DVD. so when I
choose upgrade option at inistall time, how do the dependency get
resolved for the packages i had from FC4-extra? did it break them ?
It probably left the programs depending on libs that are no longer on
your system and were replaced upward in versions. Doing a yum update
afterwards *should* bring the packages back to functionality.
The maintainers/developers for Fedora-Extras tracked the development
up to FC5 pretty much. They did an excellent job for packages that I
use from the repository.

Thanks Jim,
It did it. before yum update, I have seen several *FC4.rpm left in the
rpmdb. I did yum update and it updated with no problem.
thanks again
