It's not just like that for the last 24h. You've been chasing ghosts. fedora-development inherits packages, which have not been rebuilt, from Fedora 6 and Fedora 7. Only new builds get the .fc8 dist tag when they use %dist in the spec file. The Fedora 7 release notes explain why Fedora 7 contains packages with .fc6 in their release version. > baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/$basearch/os/> > that does not seem to answer. Update your bookmarks, because the directory layout has changed some weeks ago: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/ baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/$basearch/os/ Conclusively, are you aware that you don't refer to Fedora 6 but Fedora Development (aka rawhide)? You don't run Fedora 6 when you have that repository enabled. And yes, there are ordinary broken dependencies in fedora development. See the daily rawhide report on fedora-devel list or fedora-test list.
