That's the weird part. I had one file named fedora.repo and another named fedora.repo~ and one file named fedora.debuginfo.repo and fedora.debuginfo.repo~. When I erased the ~ files that took care of the problem. So, as I promised, I put a jpeg of Mandee in the yum.repo.d directory, but yum ignored it. That's hopeful, yes? Plus, I rechecked freshrpms.repo file and the darn thing was set to enabled. Beats the heck outa me, but I disabled it and have no more problems with it as well. Thanks for the assist, running the script showed the ~ backup files being recognized. Ok, I just coped fedora.repo to fedora.repo~ but yum didn't act as before. I'm clueless. It works, and that's the end of that. <boggles> Ric -- ================================================ My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ..the Sin of Ignorance, and the Sin of Stupidity.
