Hi. I'm doing an upgrade from fedora 8 to 9, following the instructions listed in fedoraproject.org. However, I'm running into an issue where I have some sort of issue with HAL. As a test, I'm simply trying to upgrade hal, and then i'll do a "yum upgrade" for everything. the repos dir is: [root@toshiba yum.repos.d]# ls fedora-development.repo_ fedora-updates-testing-newkey.repo fedora-rawhide.repo fedora-updates-testing.repo_ fedora.repo_ fedora-updates-testing.repo__ fedora.repo__ fedora-updates-testing.repo__2 fedora-updates-newkey.repo livna-devel.repo__ fedora-updates-newkey.repo~ livna.repo_ fedora-updates.repo~ livna-testing.repo__ fedora-updates.repo_ remi-fedora.repo fedora-updates.repo.rpmnew ------------------------------------------------- [root@toshiba ~]# cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ [root@toshiba yum.repos.d]# yum update hal Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * updates-newkey: mirrors.usc.edu Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package hal.x86_64 0:0.5.11-2.fc9 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: hal-libs = 0.5.11-2.fc9 for package: hal --> Processing Dependency: PolicyKit >= 0.7 for package: hal --> Processing Dependency: smbios-utils for package: hal --> Processing Dependency: /usr/bin/polkit-auth for package: hal --> Processing Dependency: libsmbios.so.2()(64bit) for package: hal --> Running transaction check ---> Package hal.x86_64 0:0.5.11-2.fc9 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: smbios-utils for package: hal --> Processing Dependency: libsmbios.so.2()(64bit) for package: hal ---> Package hal-libs.x86_64 0:0.5.11-2.fc9 set to be updated ---> Package PolicyKit.x86_64 0:0.8-3.fc9 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: hal-libs = 0.5.10-4.fc8 for package: hal ---> Package hal-libs.i386 0:0.5.11-2.fc9 set to be updated ---> Package PolicyKit.i386 0:0.8-3.fc9 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: hal-libs = 0.5.10-4.fc8 for package: hal --> Finished Dependency Resolution hal-0.5.11-2.fc9.x86_64 from updates-newkey has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: libsmbios.so.2()(64bit) is needed by package hal-0.5.11-2.fc9.x86_64 (updates-newkey) hal-0.5.11-2.fc9.x86_64 from updates-newkey has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: smbios-utils is needed by package hal-0.5.11-2.fc9.x86_64 (updates-newkey) hal-0.5.10-4.fc8.i386 from installed has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: hal-libs = 0.5.10-4.fc8 is needed by package hal-0.5.10-4.fc8.i386 (installed) hal-0.5.10-4.fc8.i386 from installed has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: hal-libs = 0.5.10-4.fc8 is needed by package hal-0.5.10-4.fc8.i386 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: libsmbios.so.2()(64bit) is needed by package hal-0.5.11-2.fc9.x86_64 (updates-newkey) Error: Missing Dependency: smbios-utils is needed by package hal-0.5.11-2.fc9.x86_64 (updates-newkey) Error: Missing Dependency: hal-libs = 0.5.10-4.fc8 is needed by package hal-0.5.10-4.fc8.i386 (installed) [root@toshiba yum.repos.d]# ------------------------------------------------------------------------- i'm not sure what the issue is between the hal, and the hal-libs. i've tried to download/install the rpm for libsmbios.so.2, but it gets into requiring other dependencies... any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.. thanks -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
