I can't use Software Updater either. And yum doesn't work either. First I had a crash, where the dump indicated that the livna repository was a problem. So I removed livna. Then I had a crash, where the dump indicated that the freshrpms repository was a problem. So I removed freshrpms. Then I had a crash, where the dump indicated that a column ("checksum_value") was missing from sqlite. I've attached a crash dump from the 3rd crash. My system is a fresh update from FC6 to FC7Test4. Hardware is i386/Celeron 2MHz processor. Martin

I think I found a solution that works in my case: First I downloaded rpm-packages for - yum - yum-metadata-parser - yum-updatesd from the development repository at http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/Fedora/ Then I installed these packages with an rpm command-line transaction: # rpm -Uvh yum-3.1.7-2.fc7.noarch.rpm yum-metadata-parser-1.1.0-1.fc7.i386.rpm yum-updatesd-3.1.7-2.fc7.noarch.rpm Then I ran yum to update my system: # yum update And it looks like it works.
Updating yum works like a charm. Updates install successfully. Thanks for the info Martin.
Thank you for the report. However this has been reported to the incorrect component. Reassigning from "up2date" to "pirut". Closing bug as per comment #4 and comment #5.
