Description Christopher Beland 2008-07-19 05:37:22 UTC
When I do "yum update", I get errors instead of a successful update.  This
prevents security updates from being installed.

A couple of things:

1. you can use --skip-broken to make sure your security updates get applied

2. the problem that caused this issue was with some pkgs not being pushed into
the repository. That's been corrected and should, even now, be propagating out
to mirrors.


Comment 2 Christopher Beland 2008-07-19 06:10:05 UTC
Unfortunately, the security updates seem to be too closely related to the
problem to be installed.  I'm not sure why this report doesn't count as a bug,
but I'm very glad to know it's already been fixed.  Thanks for your prompt reply!

Comment 3 seth vidal 2008-07-19 06:17:18 UTC
It may be a bug, but it's not a yum bug. That's why I closed it not a bug.
