In case you don't have repoquery yet, you can find it in the "yum-utils" package. There has been a gtk-shark2 update recently, and it certainly provides these four things which are complained about. "sysinfo" is not found in the Fedora package collection, however. I wonder whether that might be of importance. If you "rpm -e sysinfo" it and then try yum update again, any change? > Complete! > (1, [u'Please report this error in http://yum.baseurl.org/report']) > > I haven't the faintest idea what that means; so I google the > error line. > > It sends me to a wad of sites on Fedora-forum (which I never have > been able to use; but I see there are discussions back at least to 2007). > > So I go to that yum site, and it wants me to register; I try. > > Three different browsers tell me its certificate is no good, and > urge me strongly not to go there.

If it prints a list of what packages it will remove, it won't silently remove itself. What makes "yum remove ..." dangerous is that other dependency chains are much longer and would lead to removing many more packages. Paying close attention to the printed list and the y/n safety check is very important. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
