Created attachment 151639 [details] Yum update errors
I checked in this change http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/devel/hal/hal.spec?r1=1.125&r2=1.126 earlier today but someone needs to a) test it; and b) put it into rawhide; as Jesse told me told build it with 'make build BREW_FLAGS="--skip-tag"'. Jesse?

According to David, this is going to be fixed in yum.
(In reply to comment #4) > According to David, this is going to be fixed in yum. That's what Jesse told me. Thoughts?
Seth was working on a plugin to be able to work around known issues like this, but I don't think it's done yet and Seth is busy with moving and such. We may have to work around it in Anaconda for upgrades, but that won't help people who just yum upgrade.
one way or another I'll do it this week. Not much choice, is there?
okie doke here is the plugin: http://linux.duke.edu/~skvidal/yum-misc/remove-stuff-plugin.py here is the file format it will need to grab from the repodata. http://linux.duke.edu/~skvidal/yum-misc/cleanup.xml you need to use modifyrepo in createrepo to shove it into the repomd.xml, etc. after that it's all gravy, I think. Jesse can you give this a whirl?
