I am stepping out this time and trying to do the upgrade from FC5 to FC6 using yum upgrade and and having some minor (I hope) issues. I have: rpm -Uhv \ http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/fedora-release-6-4.noarch.rpm \ http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/6/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/fedora-release-notes-6-3.noarch.rpm And rpm -ivh http://rpm.livna.org/livna-release-6.rpm To set the environment. When I run yum upgrade I get the following dependency errors: Error: Missing Dependency: libsepol - 1.12.27-1 is needed by package libsepol-devel Error: Missing Dependency: libgnomecanvaspixbuf.so.1 is needed by package gtkhtml Error: Missing Dependency: libttf.so.2 is needed by package VFlib2 Error: Missing Dependency: libgailutil.so.17 is needed by package compat-gtkhtml3 Any pointers on what to do to resolve this would be greatly appreciated!
Try using the command: rpm -q --whatrequires gtkhtml VFlib2 compat-gtkhtml3 libsepol-devel If it comes up with a list of not-so-important things, then you can likely yum remove them and then try your upgrade again. Sometimes packages are not so complete with their "Obsoletes" list and leave packages hanging around that depend on old libraries that have updates and this ends up blocking the upgrade. /Mike
