Description Granville Xiong 2006-03-24 17:38:31 UTC
Description of problem:

yumex failed to udpate some selected packages from Fedora Core 5 update
repository. However using the command line like "yum update <packages>" succeeded!

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

0.99.14-1.0.fc5

How reproducible:

Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch yumex.
2. Do the update.
3. Some package updates will fail while the command line tool "yum" always succeeds.
  
Actual results:

Update failed, and the worst thing is that, for example, when yumex failed to
update the original xorg-x11-server-Xorg to the updated version
xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.0.1-8.i386.rpm, the original package was removed but the
new package has not been installed. This left my system without
xorg-x11-server-Xorg! Too bad!

Expected results:

Update through yumex should work because the packages themsevles are totally fine.

Additional info:
