    updates for fedora 12 wont load

    hi,

    i just installed fc12, x86_64 linux. i keep getting a msg that 424 updates need to be installed. when i click on the "install" button, i get the following msg:

    "dependency resolution failed"
    "a package could not be found, that allows the action to complete"

    -devel-3.12.6-1.2.fc12.i686 (updates)
    pkgconfig(nss-util) >= 3.12.6 is needed by package nss-devel-3.12.6-1.2.fc12.i686 (updates)
    nspr >= 4.8.4 is needed by package nss-3.12.6-1.2.fc12.i686 (updates)
    nspr-devel >= 4.8.4 is needed by package nss-devel-3.12.6-1.2.fc12.i686 (updates)
    nss-util = 3.12.6 is needed by package nss-3.12.6-1.2.fc12.i686 (updates)

    Execute this
    Code:
    yum repolist
    Post output here.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    Both repositories are enabled.
    Execute yum clean all command and try to update again.
    In case it throws same error, wait for a few days. There could be a problem at repositories side only and will be sorted out any time.

    Code:
    yum clean all
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    casper,

    i entered the "yum clean all" cmd, and got this:

    Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
    Cleaning up Everything

    thanks,
