Typically this means that none of your installed packages and none of the packages in your enabled repositories provides the needed 'libdevmapper.so.1.02'. This can also happen if an already installed package or any in the enabled repositories upgrades device-mapper to an incompatible version, which does not include the needed component. Run rpm --query --whatprovides libdevmapper.so.1.02 to see if any installed package is sufficient. For example: $ rpm -q --whatprovides libdevmapper.so.1.02 device-mapper-1.02.02-3.2 $ rpm -q --whatprovides 'libdevmapper.so.1.02(Base)' device-mapper-1.02.02-3.2 If the query does not print the device-mapper package, run rpm --query device-mapper to find out what version is installed. It must be a version compatible with Fedora Core 5. If you have an incompatible one, get a good one and downgrade it with "rpm -Uvh --oldpackage file.rpm", then continue with your yum update.
