I hope you don't have all those repos enabled!!! If you do, you've answered your own question - you're also opening yourself up to huge problems. You should start with fedora-core, fedora-extras, and fedora-updates enabled. After you've done some due research, you have to decide between livna and freshrpms/dries - don't enable both. Development repos should not be enabled except for very specific, well researched, reasons - they are the leading edge of new software being developed, and are prone to many problems. Others will chime in, I'm sure. -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
