The error message generated was You should be downloading the rpm package from a repository, not the tar ball. I'm trying to determine if you have a problem with your web connection, and that is causing your yum failures. Use your browser to go to http://mirrors.cat.pdx.edu/fedora/linux/updates/11/x86_64/ find the packages libX11-devel-1.2.2-1.fc11.i586.rpm 12-Jul-2009 08:54 1.1M libX11-devel-1.2.2-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm 12-Jul-2009 08:54 1.1M and download the rpms to your system. Put them in the directory /var/cache/yum/updates/packages/ Now run yum update libX11-devel\* Do the packages install properly? > > Errors were encountered while downloading packages. > libXau-devel-1.0.4-5.fc11.x86_64: failure: > libXau-devel-1.0.4-5.fc11.x86_64.rpm from fedora-iisc: (256, 'No more > mirrors to try.') libXdmcp-devel-1.0.2-8.fc11.x86_64: failure: > libXdmcp-devel-1.0.2-8.fc11.x86_64.rpm from fedora-iisc: (256, 'No > more mirrors to try.') > > what should i do to resolve this. I can't give you an answer as there is still not enough detail. I suggest you edit the file /etc/yum.conf and change the entry debuglevel=2 to debuglevel=10 so you see lots of output from yum. The actual error should now be displayed. Also try looking in the directory /etc/yum.repos.d/ Do you have the following two files there? fedora.repo fedora-updates.repo What are their contents? As the other responders said, you haven't shown us the real error yet. -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
