- Install contacts on f17 - Start a yum --releasever=18 distro-sync -> there are dependency issues because contacts hasn't been rebuilt against the newer evolution-data-server contacts has http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/contacts.git/tree/dead.package "Package is dead. The functionality has been replaced by gnome-contacts" It seems to me that gnome-contacts should have an "Obsoletes: contacts" to help with upgrades.
Error message on upgrade is Error: Package: contacts-0.12-15.fc17.x86_64 (@fedora/17) Requires: libedataserver-1.2.so.16()(64bit) Removing: evolution-data-server-3.4.4-3.fc17.x86_64 (@updates/17) libedataserver-1.2.so.16()(64bit) Updated By: evolution-data-server-3.5.92-1.fc18.x86_64 (fedora) Not found Error: Package: contacts-0.12-15.fc17.x86_64 (@fedora/17) Requires: libebook-1.2.so.13()(64bit) Removing: evolution-data-server-3.4.4-3.fc17.x86_64 (@updates/17) libebook-1.2.so.13()(64bit) Updated By: evolution-data-server-3.5.92-1.fc18.x86_64 (fedora) Not found
Oops, missed updating that. Thought I had done so. Adding obsoletes now.
