That does indeed appear to have been the problem. Out-of-date mirror.
I tried a "yum clean all" last night and had the same problem, but I did it
again ("yum clean all") about an hour ago and it worked.
Now I have a different (related) issue.
I installed both Adobe Reader and Flash. However, I don't see either of them
in my Firefox about:config.
I did a bit of reading on nspluginwrapper and discovered two things:
The program nspluginwrapper that's mentioned in the documentation does not exist
on this computer.
The program mozilla-plugin-config does, even though it's not mentioned.
"mozilla-plugin-config -l" gives me a list of mplayer stuff.
"mozilla-plugin-config -i" doesn't seem to change anything. Another
"mozilla-plugin-config -l" afterward gives me the same list of mplayer stuff
and I still don't see Adobe Reader or Flash in about:config after reloading
Firefox.
So what do I have to do to make these plugins work? It seems to me that all I
did on my other computer was to install the Adobe Reader and Flash rpms and it
just worked by magic.
