asadal you have the EXACT same problem installing EVERYTHING even closely related to "grace"
*grace*
that and the "*" ( wildcard) will install EVERYTHING with "grace" someplace in the name and the "y" will AUTOMATICALLY say YES to EVERYTHING
it is not a good idea to use the "y" option and not good to blindly install everything that matches a word in a search
For installing every thing I need to update my repo dude , and I cant update my repo cause of this :
cant retrieve repository metadata , please verify it's path and try again !
asadal
normally you should start a new thread
seeing as this is NOT related to the program " grace"
obviously you can get on line ( posting here) but your icon says you are using Windows 7
so IS fedora 16 installed to the harddrive ?
How did you install it ? in a single boot or a dual boot ?
or is this some kind of "virtual" install ON a windows 7 operating system ?
I'm using dual boot . two OS on one hdd . Finally I upadted my repo last night but still cant load the pages , i can ping addresses and they give me replay but I can't load them , my freind has the same problem , he is using ubuntu 11.10 , Ps : I've installed Opensuse 12.10 before installing fedora 16 and I had same problem in OpenSuse !!!
