I don't recall the exact URL that this came from, I am sure that someone will :-) , but this script works quite well with missing dependencies. It is VERY slow as it does not do all the packages at the same time. ------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh # # Yum Update - packages with missing dependancies skipped. # for i in `yum list updates |cut -f 1 -d " " |grep -A 500 -e Updated |\ grep -v -e Updated` ; do echo "Updating $i" yum -y update $i done ------------------------------------------------------------- -- David
