Description of problem: 'rpm -qR NetworkManager' shows 'wireless-tools >= 27' but also 'libiw.so.27'. This is causing trouble as then current update 'wireless-tools-28-0.pre4.1.fc3' provides libiw.so.28 and yum attempts to pull wireless-tools - 1:27-0.pre25.2 "as update for NetworkManager" (this is from a yum debug output) even if wireless-tools-27-0.pre25.3 are currently installed. That action, not so surprisingly, fails and we have a dependency problem until NetworkManager will get the next update. yum, alas, does not skip automatically through such sore spots when simply asked 'update' or 'upgrade'. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): NetworkManager-0.3.3-1.cvs20050112.1.fc3
I have the same problem. Here's the error from up2date. Seems like kdenetwork depends on libiw.so.27 as well: There was a package dependency problem. The message was: Unresolvable chain of dependencies: NetworkManager 0.3.3-1.cvs20050112.1.fc requires libiw.so.27 kdenetwork 3.3.1-1 requires libiw.so.27 Please modify your package selections and try again.
Oh, I happen not to have kdenetwork installed so I missed that. Does this dependency on libiw.so has to be that specific? This will cause headaches every time wireless-tools version will get bumped up.
