At the bottom is a list, if there are any, of broken dependencies. So you either exclude those packages that would break your install and do the update or wait until tomorrow because that is all the longer it normally takes to be corrected. And that is the development branch. It is expected to have problems from time to time. Me? As like I said, I don't ever have any problems. And I do not use packages provided by non Fedora repos. -- David
