Hi,
for my F7 system, after I run "yum update"/"yum clean all", then I issue
the following command:
#rpm -Uhv
http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-8-3.noarch.rpm http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/fedora/linux/releases/8/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-notes-8.0.0-3.noarch.rpm
which succeed.
but when I issue the followng command again:
-----------------------
#yum -y update

after sometime, the dependency check never end, I looked at the out put
message closely , found that it enters a loop as following:

how to resolve this issue?
Temporarily yum remove ffmpeg which will probably remove a few other
things. Why? because it is a non-fedora package.
Alternately, your other repo might have released F8 packages, and you
could modify your yum config {perhaps a repo-release rpm} to point to
the external F8 repo.
