Fedora Users — Re: f7 update broke lots of stuff

Hi,

Ran yum update about an hour ago.  First update in about a week.

The frames around windows is missing.  I can't move a window with the
mouse.  I have only one desktop (workspace icon on the task bar is
missing).  In fact, there are no buttons on the taskbar for running
programs....

Went digging around to look for stuff to help describe the problem.

Looked in upgrade.log and found lots of packages with errors that looklike the one below:

I just finished the updates for today 11 July 2007 at 5:00PM MDT andnothing has changed on my screen at all. I think you have a problem.
