could you include the /etc/yum/repos.d file that you added from adobe?

I installed F7 from the DVD image, and receive the same results attempting to
run a normal upgrade.

Comment 3 Andre Robatino 2007-06-17 01:07:40 UTC

  Adobe now has its own yum repo for installing the flash-plugin.  Here is the
adobe-release RPM, which contains an adobe-linux.repo file and a GPG key:

http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/adobe-release/adobe-release-1.0-0.noarch.rpm

and here are the contents of adobe-linux.repo:

[adobe-linux]
name=Adobe Systems Incorporated
baseurl=http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-adobe-linux

Comment 4 Jeremy Katz 2007-06-18 21:11:12 UTC

This is Adobe's fault as they're not providing an x86_64 repo, but on x86_64
$basearch expands out to x86_64.
