yum update


Hi

I have big problems with dependecies when I try to update.
When I run yum update it ends with this :

Error: Missing Dependency: libFLAC.so.7 is needed by package libtunepimp
Error: Missing Dependency: libFLAC.so.7 is needed by package gstreamer08-plugins
Error: Missing Dependency: libparted-1.8.so.0 is needed by package qtparted
Error: Missing Dependency: libparted-1.8.so.0 is needed by package gparted
Error: Missing Dependency: libFLAC.so.7 is needed by package xine-lib
Error: Missing Dependency: libpq.so.4 is needed by package amarok
Error: Missing Dependency: libcurl.so.3 is needed by package libtunepimp
Error: Missing Dependency: libpython2.4.so.1.0 is needed by package koffice-core
Error: Missing Dependency: libFLAC.so.7 is needed by package akode
Error: Missing Dependency: libOggFLAC.so.3 is needed by package akode
Error: Missing Dependency: libpcap.so.0.9.4 is needed by package airsnort
Error: Missing Dependency: libpq.so.4 is needed by package libpqxx
Error: Missing Dependency: gecko-libs = 1.8.0.10 is needed by package galeon
Error: Missing Dependency: libgcj.so.7rh is needed by package frysk
Error: Missing Dependency: libgcj.so.7rh is needed by package libglade-java
Error: Missing Dependency: libgcj.so.7rh is needed by package libgnome-java
Error: Missing Dependency: libgcj.so.7rh is needed by package libgconf-java
Error: Missing Dependency: libpython2.4.so.1.0 is needed by package koffice-kivio

Then I try to find this stuff on rpmfind.net. But when I try to install what I files like
ibFLAC.so.7 and ibpython2.4.so.1.0 I get the answer I have newer files installed allready, and there it stops.

What should I do ??

The mirror you are using is probably not fully synced. Wait a few hours and then try to do the upgrade again.

Alternatively, you may be being told that the update would replace libraries upon which the listed application depend. Look at the list of libraries to be updated and see if yum has proposed to install a newer version of the library that the application needs.

Often application developers do not control the libraries used by their applications, and -- since they can not test their application with a version of a library that has not been released when they release their application -- they specify that their application depends on a specific version of the library.

Uninstall the application, wait for the developer to test it with the new library, and reinstall after the tested version is released. Alternatively, don't update the library in question. (Of course, some other application may depend on the newer library version, so you may need to choose between various applications.)

yum update

Hi
The problem was thatI had the development respository enabled.
When I disabled it, everything works fine.
Thanks for the answers anyway.
