FC7T2 Yum - Excessive Dependencies?

[Styma, Robert E (Robert)]

Running Yum under FC7T2, it started out
spending about 2 hours checking over 3100 
dependencies.  

I have not seen this with earlier versions
of yum.  Is this to be expected?

It is not really excessive dependencies. It is just that Yum dep 
resolving speed has a regression in the latest version of Yum which is a 
expected and known issue that is planned to be fixed before the general 
release of Fedora 7.

Upgrading yum fixed serious upgrade problems
yum -y upgrade yum
yum clean all
service yum-updatesd restart

Now dependences were resolved and downloads started.
It was necessary to run yum clean.

There are many packages updates backed up to I'm leaving it to do it's think
and will check it after dinner. I suppose the update could still fail.
For some reason yum ver 3.1.4 was reporting conflicts between existing
packages and release updates. upgrading to yum 3.1.5 solved at least this
problem.
