Greetings, I've been using Fedora Core 2 for a while and decided to try out FC3- test2. I got it installed with no problems and I'm writing this from it. The problem is that I am trying to use up2date to update my system, and I keep getting a dependency error. It is saying that linc is required to install linc-devel. Here is the output from yum:
Requiring package is installed: linc-devel - 1.0.3-6.i386 Resolving for installed requiring package: linc-devel - 1.0.3-6.i386 Resolving for requirement: linc= 1.0.3 Mode for pkg providing linc= 1.0.3: None Searching pkgSack for dep: linc Potential match for linc from linc - 1.0.3-6.i386 Matched linc - 1.0.3-6.i386 to require for linc miss = 2 conf = 0 CheckDeps = 0 Finished Dependency Resolution Dependency Process ending Error: missing dep: linc for pkg linc-devel
I look at that and notice that linc nor linc-devel are in the repository from the mirror im using. I figure it's no big deal and I just download the linc version it wants and go to install it, only to get a message saying that it is already installed.
[root@median ~]# rpm -qa | grep linc linc-devel-1.0.3-6 linc-1.0.3-6 [root@median ~]#
yum wants 1.0.3, but I have 1.0.3-6. This normally shouldn't matter, but for some reason yum doesn't like this. Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Thanks, dustin
I just erased (rpm -e) on the linc-devel and one other devel pkg that depends on it to get by the error. Not the fix, but at least you can get the other updates.

Hi,
-- Same just rpm -e linc-devel
Word of advice in case you didn't hear that you want to exclude udev today - check the devel list for the warning

Thanks, that worked. I had to specify --nodeps for linc-devel and I also had to remove at-spi-devel. That got me past the linc/linc-devel problem.
Thanks for the heads up on udev. I excluded udev from the updates and then the next screen has udev listed as one of the required packages (because some other package requires udev.) Any idea which package(s) this may be?
