Description Need Real Name 2006-10-15 14:19:10 UTC

I think this is more of a yum or rpm problem, since a failure is being reported
as a success.

Bugzilla doesn't seem to have any bugs for this.

# yum -y upgrade

Comment 2 Jeremy Katz 2006-10-16 19:53:00 UTC

python-xeninst was a new package in FC6 and has to be renamed -- so that we can
retain compatibility and not have to rebuild the world at this point, we had to
go with the non-upgradable version of the change.

This is why upgrades from rawhide -> final can't always be supported.

Okay, fair enough, I'll remove it then.
