Hi.
I got an interesting Yum problem today. It complains that kernel
2.6.22.4-65.fc7 is needed by kmod-(nvidia|ntfs) for that kernel, even
though that kernel isn't going to be touched by the update:
# yum update
Loading "fedorakmod" plugin
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading "skip-broken" plugin
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile

Any ideas, or should i file a bug right away?

I found that the yum-skip-broken was broken, so I did the following: (Only add those modules you have)
sudo yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update yum \
yum-allowdowngrade \
yum-basearchonly \
yum-changelog \
yum-downloadonly \
yum-fastestmirror \
yum-fedorakmod \
yum-kernel-module \
yum-merge-conf \
yum-priorities \
yum-protect-packages \
yum-protectbase \
yum-refresh-updatesd \
yum-security \
yum-skip-broken \
yum-tsflags \
yum-updateonboot \
yum-updatesd \
yum-utils \
yumex
Then I did a
sudo yum --skip-broken update
and it worked.
