`yum history info 23`

Description of problem:
Yesterday I ran a yum update only to find a non-working Xorg today, because gdm and gnome were removed as a result of some dependency.  I have attached a yum history info log that shows the information of yesterday's fatal transaction.

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


How reproducible: It only happened once


Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum update
2. reboot
3.
  
Actual results: Non working Xorg

Expected results: Xorg should be working


Additional info: This problem was solved by running yum groupinstall 'gnome desktop environment'

The transaction in question is number 23.

 Yeh, the "**" for transaction 22 means that that transaction failed ... the next transaction was then likely yum-complete-transaction. Which is known to make "interesting" choices (fixed upstream, and maybe in updates-testing?).

 We should probably make y-c-t etc. add yum-utils to the running with list.

Comment 4 Tim Lauridsen 2010-04-29 12:57:43 UTC
fixed upstream all newtype tools will add yum-utils version to history.
