I know this isn't supported, but I did it anyways telling myself that I could get myself out of trouble if I got into trouble. Here it is... I tried to upgrade to FC4 -> FC5, using 'yum upgrade', and it seems to succeeded after lots of brute force work resolving some broken dependencies from 3rd party repos. However, I know some packages did not upgrade. The system boots and is usable though. I guess the root cause is that some 3rd party repos packages had a higher version number than the one in fc5. So here is what I want: 1. I want to make sure all packages installed are built for fc5. 2. I want to check all packages and make sure they exist in the fc5 repos mentioned in the yum.repos.d I am wondering if someone has solved this problem with a script, if not I'll be hacking away at it.
I don't have a pretty solution for your problem, but this command should at least show you all the non-FC5 packages that you currently have installed: rpm -qa | grep -vi fc5 -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ L.
