I think i know what was going wrong. I've updated from fc8 to fc9 using Anaconda. Everything seemed to work fine, only problem was the error message i've reported. It seems that there were some installed packages from fc8 left, and during the yum update in fc9 there are no Repos with fc8 packages. So the system tried to to update a fc8 package from a fc9 Repo and returns the failure message. I think this is just normal behavior. Using yum to erase the fc8 package and reinstall it from a fc9 Repo was the solution. So i'm a new with Linux and upgrading to fc9 after one week with fc8 was a real good training ;-) Only question left is why Anaconda leaves some fc8 packages when upgrading to fc9 ? I've attached the result of 'rpm -qa | grep fc8' - there are still some packages left. Do i have to uninstall them or is there any way for upgrade to fc9 versions ? By the way 'yum list gnome-panel' now returns: gnome-panel.x86_64 2.22.2-1.fc9 installed
The original bug is a multilib problem with .i386 not available AIUI. This might be something to do with caching old Fed-8 repodata while running Fed-9, or just a broken updates repo. So I'm going to close.
