You can just do: --exclude mythtv\* ... until mythtv is fixed in rpmfusion. I'm not so sure this is solely a mythtv/rpmfusion problem. For, I tried updating again this morning (using GUI update), and again I got a Transaction Error. This time, the Details said: "No Transaction to process". See attached screenshot. While it's true that the updates being attempted are all MythTV updates, a MythTV problem shouldn't corrupt an update transaction, should it? Created attachment 416778 [details]
Screenshot of failed update transaction.
Screenshot showing the problem I'm seeing.
That's a PK problem, and I'm not really sure what it means. If you run yum directly I can tell if it's a yum bug or, more likely, a packaging/repo. problem. But the problem in the initial report, yum fails dep. resolution, is almost certainly a mythtv pacakge or rpmfusion repo. problem. Upon closer inspection/reporting, it looks like this may be a 3-part bug: 1. Running update from the GUI (Package Kit, GnomePK in my case) first gives the Transaction Error I most recently reported: "No transaction to process". 2. Re-running update from GUI (without shutting down the GPK session) then gives the Transaction Error I reported yesterday: "could not add package update for arts-8:1.5.10-12.fc12(i686)updates: 8:arts-1.5.10-12.fc12.i686". 3. Running "yum update" directly gives the yum error I reported yesterday. It seems you have resolved #3 ("if it hurts to update MythTV, don't do that" :-). Fair enough. But for #1 and #2, it seems somebody in PK-land might want to have a look. Would it make sense to re-route this bug report to the PK software maintainers? And, how about informing the mythtv/rpmfusion/repo maintainers themselves? |
