I normally use my Linux laptop offline because wireless doesn'y work (ipw2200--see previous threads|). Yesterday I connected via wire and tried yum update.

Thanks, Chris for your help. You were heading in the right direction. The final solution came via the yum list: On 7/8/07, David Timms <dtimms@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: ...
Is the installed yum and it's dependencies OK ? rpm -V yum python rpm rpm-libs fedora-release python-sqlite2 python-urlgrabber yum-metadata-parser
I replied: ==> On the bad laptop the rpm -V command showed prelinking changes with rpm libs. I ran ldd on one of the libs and discovered some old gcc and pthreads libraries in /usr/local/lib. I removed the old /usr/local/lib gcc and pthreads libraries and now everything works fine. <== So my laptop is working now and my confidence in yum is restored. Thanks again to Chris for his help. -Tom
I get essentially the same response with any yum command. Any ideas? Thanks. -- Tom Browder Niceville, Florida USA
