    Problems updating with yum

    Ok so I've tried to figure this out for myself, but I'm really confused at this point. I've tried to update my packages that are involved with the various programming languages, and libraries. I am running Fedora 10, and when I do yum groupinstall "Development" I get this output.

    Code:
    --> Running transaction check
    ---> Package perl.i386 4:5.10.0-56.fc10 set to be updated
    --> Processing Dependency: perl = 4:5.10.0-49.fc10 for package: perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib

    Error: Missing Dependency: perl = 4:5.10.0-49.fc10 is needed by package 4:perl-libs-5.10.0-49.fc10.i386 (installed)
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I think you need to install perl-libs first

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

    thats what I thought at first as well. Though when I went out and manually downloaded the rpm and tried to install it, it came back saying that it is already installed.

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    This happens sometimes where there are existing packages on the system that depend on the old version of what it being updated and haven't an updated version that works with the newer stuff you want to install. Basically, the perl libs v5.10.0-56 is superceding v5.10.0-49 and a bunch of stuff still need v5.10.0-49, so if you installed ...56 they would break. When this happens to me, I first wait a few days for the dependent packages to be updated and then try again.
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
