Hello all,
I hope everyone is doing well. I have a problem. I am using the "updates-testing" repo. A number of packages in there are ones I find useful. But, over the last few weeks, when I do a yum -y update, it fails with:
Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait. ---> Package nfs-utils-lib.i386 0:1.0.8-4.FC5 set to be updated ---> Package libgssapi.i386 0:0.9-1.FC5 set to be updated --> Running transaction check --> Processing Dependency: librpcsecgss.so.1 for package: nfs-utils --> Processing Dependency: libgssapi.so.1 for package: nfs-utils --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Missing Dependency: librpcsecgss.so.1 is needed by package nfs-utils Error: Missing Dependency: libgssapi.so.1 is needed by package nfs-utils
I tried to do a "yum install libgssapi", but that doesn't work (already installed). If I try to exclude packages, I believe yum will only let me do one. So, if I tell it to ignore nfs-utils lib, then it still fails because it couldn't find libgssapi. If I try to exclude libgssapi, nfs-utils croaks, of course. So...what to do?

Exclude them both:
# yum --enablerepo=updates-testing --exclude=libgssapi --exclude=nfs-utils-lib update
The nfs-utils-lib and libgssapi updates should be accompanied by an nfs-utils package built against them. It's the absence of that that's the problem - your already-installed nfs-utils is linked against versions of nfs-utils-lib and libgssapi that would be removed by the updates to those packages.

Yep, and this has been that way for a few weeks. I should file a bugzillalalalla entry for it. In any case, it worked. Thank you for your help! --exclude did the trick for the individual ones. I didn't know the syntax allowed that; I thought it only let you exclude one set of packages.

The naming of the current rpm has an oddity in its name which makes it appear newer than the package that is actually newer. Check the below posting from the fedora-test-list. If you are running updates-testing, the list has much value.

This one case where the --nodeps option to rpm is used with good reason. :-)

The statement just above is not true. You can have as many --exclude options as you wnat but only one item (or group of items using *) can be excluded per --exclude option.
because it couldn't find libgssapi. If I try to exclude libgssapi, nfs-utils croaks, of course. So...what to do?

Of him the harpers sadly sing: the last whose realm was fair and free between the Mountains and the Sea. His sword was long, his lance was keen, his shining helm afar was seen; the countless stars of heaven's field were mirrored in his silver shield. But long ago he rode away, and where he dwelleth none can say; for into darkness fell his star in Mordor where the shadows are. -- J. R. R.
