[SOLVED] yum dependency horror
i've used yum (and rpm) for some time now, and have finally run into one of those dependency problem. I am trying to install git (among other programs), and I have reach an empass. Nothing I've tried has worked, and I just know there is a simple solution to this that I just don't know.
It all started by skipping a dependency in the past (don't remember the package). I figured there would be something to clean that up, so I just continued.
Here is my output:
If I need to, I could go and download the RPM package and install it that way, but I'd like to get YUM back working properly.Code:# yum install git Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit, security Adding en_US to language list Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Excluding mirror: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de Excluding mirror: wftp.tu-chemnitz.de * livna: rpm.livna.org * rpmfusion-free: mirror.hiwaay.net Excluding mirror: mirrors.cat.pdx.edu * rpmfusion-free-updates: mirror.hiwaay.net * rpmfusion-nonfree: mirror.hiwaay.net Excluding mirror: mirrors.cat.pdx.edu * rpmfusion-nonfree-updates: mirror.hiwaay.net Excluding mirror: archive.linux.duke.edu Excluding mirror: astromirror.uchicago.edu Excluding mirror: fedora.mirror.iweb.ca Excluding mirror: linux.nssl.noaa.gov Excluding mirror: mirror.anl.gov Excluding mirror: mirror.csclub.uwaterloo.ca Excluding mirror: mirror.ipnode.info Excluding mirror: mirror.its.dal.ca Excluding mirror: mirror.pnl.gov Excluding mirror: mirror.unl.edu Excluding mirror: mirrors.cat.pdx.edu * updates: distro.ibiblio.org Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package git.i686 0:1.7.3.3-1.fc14 set to be installed --> Processing Dependency: perl-Git = 1.7.3.3-1.fc14 for package: git-1.7.3.3-1.fc14.i686 --> Processing Dependency: perl(Error) for package: git-1.7.3.3-1.fc14.i686 --> Processing Dependency: perl(Git) for package: git-1.7.3.3-1.fc14.i686 --> Running transaction check ---> Package git.i686 0:1.7.3.3-1.fc14 set to be installed --> Processing Dependency: perl(Error) for package: git-1.7.3.3-1.fc14.i686 ---> Package perl-Git.noarch 0:1.7.3.3-1.fc14 set to be installed --> Processing Dependency: perl(Error) for package: perl-Git-1.7.3.3-1.fc14.noarch --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: perl-Git-1.7.3.3-1.fc14.noarch (updates) Requires: perl(Error) Error: Package: git-1.7.3.3-1.fc14.i686 (updates) Requires: perl(Error) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Hello and Welcome!
I would suggest that you update the entire system before you try to proceed any further. One missing Depend can cause more grief than you think. Login as root or use sudo for each command.
Code:yum clean all
Code:yum check-update

Try installing the updates first. I'm not positive about the command because I haven't tried Fedora in a long time.
If that doesn't work, you can do it one by one.Code:yum update
I've highlighted (Bold) all the ones you need you update, in your previous post.Code:yum update e2fsprogs
Keep in mind, you have some disabled repos and I don't know if the depends you need for git are in those disabled repos.I do not respond to private messages asking for Linux help, Please keep it on the forums only.

wow. didn't even know I had updates. the updates went in without any problems. and the single update did also, but the "yum install git" failed the the same way.
I guess I need to download them one time at a time.

figured it out. don't know why it is, but my main fedora.repo was NOT enabled. edited the file, enabled it, and did a plain "yum update" and it is updating everything successfully.
thanks for all the help.
