I will try again since I did not get any answers the first time. In doing a yum update on my FC5 machine I received the following errors: Error: Missing Dependency: libiso9660.so.4(ISO9660_4) is needed by package vcdimager Error: Missing Dependency: libcdio.so.6 is needed by package vcdimager Error: Missing Dependency: libcdio.so.6(CDIO_6) is needed by package vcdimager Error: Missing Dependency: libiso9660.so.4 is needed by package vcdimager Error: Missing Dependency: xine-lib(vdr) >= 0.7.6 is needed by package xine Well starting in reverse order I have xine-lib-1.1.2 installed which seems to be constant with the >=0.7.6 demand. Why did I get an error? Where are the dependencies for vcdimager supposed to come from? Going further I ran: yum --exclude="xine*" --exclude="vcdimager" update I got exactly the same errors. Putting the excludes in the yum.conf file made no difference. Can anyone explain this behavior? -- Aaron Konstam <akonstam@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
