And "messed up" could simply be "temporarily out of sync; try again later". In this case, it looks like geronimo-specs is updated, but geronimo-specs-compat is not. First thing I'd try is "yum upgrade geronimo-specs" instead of "yum update geronimo-specs". This pulls in package-obsoletes information, which is marginally slower but is usually what you want done. If that doesn't work, check to make sure you need the compat package. If not, remove it. -- Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>
