Hi, everyone,
I am running F19 on an AMD 64 bit system. I was notified of updates and chose to install them, but something went wrong. Didn't see the error message, but it stopped. And prompted me to reboot, which I did. They tried yum clean-all followed by yum update. Here is what I got back:
Warning: group core does not exist. Warning: group gnome-desktop does not exist. Warning: group multimedia does not exist. Warning: group firefox does not exist. Warning: group guest-desktop-agents does not exist. Warning: group base-x does not exist. Warning: group anaconda-tools does not exist. Warning: group electronic-lab does not exist. Warning: group fonts does not exist. Warning: group milkymist does not exist. Warning: group hardware-support does not exist. Warning: group dial-up does not exist. Warning: group printing does not exist. Warning: group libreoffice does not exist. Warning: group input-methods does not exist. Warning: group standard does not exist. No packages marked for update
I am guessing that these are groups that are supposed to be in the groups of "users and groups".
Do I need to create these and if so, why? I haven't had to do this before.

I too have this problem & despite searching for 'yum groups' on list, I cannot find an answer.
Would you kindly indulge me & either point me as to where to find these messages (I have a year's worth of Fedora messages locally on disk) or explain again what the solution to the problem is?
Many thanks,
Cheers,
Phil...

OK, according to Bugzilla 1014202, it's been filed as a bug.
Sorry for the noise.

I looked back past the first of the month, and found no thread on yum groups. I did find one on yum in F19, but it was over my head.
In case it tells any of you anything, yum update on an F20 has produced a very similar set of warnings here.

I did post a "solved" response, but it apparently did not get connected to this thread, so here it is again:
In the file /etc/yum.conf add the line: group_command=compat
This silences the messages for now. But I wonder what functionality this might hide?
