system crash while yumming and ...

[Frederic Muller]

Hi and many thanks for the prompt reply. This didn't fix it, I'm still 
getting the exact error out of yum.

installing expat-2.1.0-1 gave me:
/sbin/ldconfig: File /lib/libbrasero-utils3.so.1.2.3 is empty, not checked.
/sbin/ldconfig: File /lib/libvte2_90.so.9.3200.1 is empty, not checked.
/sbin/ldconfig: File /lib/libbrasero-media3.so.1.2.3 is empty, not checked.
/sbin/ldconfig: File /lib/libbrasero-burn3.so.1.2.3 is empty, not checked.

but maybe that's to be expected.

I now have a newly setup system on a different machine. Is there a file 
I could take from and just copy over eventually?

Thank you.

Fred
