Description Jeff Bastian 2011-07-20 20:30:05 UTC
Description of problem:
The latest thunderbird-lightning update is failing to install because it requires thunderbird >= 5.0 which doesn't exist for Fedora 15.

$ sudo yum -y update

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
thunderbird-lightning.x86_64 0:1.0-0.44.b3pre.fc15

How reproducible:
every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum -y update
  
Actual results:
thunderbird-lightning-1.0-0.44.b3pre.fc15 fails to install and breaks yum update for other packages

Expected results:

Additional info:
'yum --skip-broken -y update' allows me to skip over thunderbird-lightning

Same problem here. Fedora 15, 64bit, same versions of thunderbird and lightning..

The other angle on this is that the unobservant end-user won't see this from the desktop as PackageKit-yum fails silently, thus *no* security updates are installed (if selected to be automatic), and no notification is done even if *any* updates are available. [I observed this (or not) on KDE, ymmv.]
