First, as I illustrated in a previous message "FC6 update mystery, yum in FC6 simply does not work. Despite I have all the reposa installed you is unable to do a complete update because it can't find the dependencies needed. How can that be since these dependencies must be in one of the repos. Someone explain this or admit that yum is broken! Now let us get back to bringing back GNOME. I ran switchdesk GNOME and it told me that GNOME was not installed and I need to run a GROUPINSTALL. I tried. That did not initially work because the intallation wanted an earlier version of beagle than the currently installed version. So I excluded beagle and beagle-gui and the installation succeed. BUT FORM MY POINT OF VIEW FC6 IS CURRENTLY UNUSABLE BECAUSE YUM IS CURRENTLY UNUSABLE. I will be glad to have someone give me a explanation for my problem. On top of that piyut is dangerous to the extent I find it unusable. -- Aaron Konstam <akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
