Hi all,
  I've just installed FC5 on a virtual machine (alas, I'm somewhat wedded to 
MS).  Whenever I try to install an RPM or Add/Remove Software, the 
Package Manager kicks back on error message: "Unable to retrieve 
software information".  Anyone aware of fixes or workarounds to this?  
Thanks in advance.
