[SOLVED] Problem of Removing Sofware
Dear All,
I installed openoffice3 from the rpm files. It was successful and now I want to get rid of the old version 2.3. I clicked the Application at the launcher bar and choose the menu Add/Remove Software. I did this several times before at other machines for other packages. It is failed and gave the following message.
-----
Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: livna. Please verify its path and try again
-----
I was googling and found that we need to edit the file /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora.repo
This was not successful either. Any clue?

There is no need to edit fedora.repo file because problem is with Livna repo only.
Execute this in Terminal
In case it doesn't work, disable Livna repository. Set enabled=1 in /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo file Or post the contents of livna.repo file here.Code:su - yum clean all
It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

Thanks for the prompt response. I de-activated the livna.repo by editing the file /etc/yum.repos.d/livna.repo
---------------
#enabled=1
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
----------------
It is now OK!
Thank you.
