Comment 1 Ville Skyttä 2005-09-29 17:29:45 UTC
(Cc'ing Jens, the FC wl maintainer, just a FYI.)  
  
The problem is that there's no separate apel-xemacs package any more, and   
xemacs-sumo provides only version 10.2.  Further, there's no wl-xemacs package   
in FC4 nor Extras for FC4.   
   
Unfortunately the best I can suggest is to manually remove wl-xemacs, and then   
try updating again.  "yum upgrade" (not "yum update") could also help, but I   
haven't tested that.  

Comment 2 Jens Petersen 2005-09-30 01:23:07 UTC
Hmm, ok - I plan to submit wl to Extras one day though...

It is strange that yum doesn't see the higher version of apel-xemacs.

Comment 3 Ville Skyttä 2005-10-03 05:25:00 UTC
It probably does see it, but xemacs-sumo has "Obsoletes: apel-xemacs < 10.6-6" 
for upgrades. 

Comment 4 Jens Petersen 2005-11-15 06:50:28 UTC
ddskk requires apel-10.6 to build,
so I'm unable to build it currently in Extras.

Comment 5 Ville Skyttä 2005-11-15 18:51:47 UTC
The ddskk specfile in CVS lists apel 10.2 as the minimum needed version...? 
 
More relevant discussion is in bug 162952, but Jens, please open a new 
separate bug and let's try to work it out there in case it's really 10.6 of 
apel that's required for ddskk and not 10.2.  It's not the same problem as 
this wl-xemacs one, so it's better discussed elsewhere. 

Comment 6 Jens Petersen 2005-11-16 02:44:24 UTC
Ok, the ddskk.spec file is wrong then, because the build fails without 10.6.
It is not an upgrade problem, but it essentially amounts to the same thing.
Anyway let me open a new bug as you request.
