Thank you in advance. output snipped It seems like there were too many repos involved, hence the issue--that is, one has to, as you've learned to your cost, be careful about priorities when mixing repos such as rpmforge, epel, and especially atrpms (I believe the atrpm site warns about this.) I don't know how much risk you're willing to take, nor how experienced you are, but one way I've fixed such problems when I've run into them is remove the packages that require the missing depedencies--in your case, for example, firefox and gimp. Finally, afer I've removed enough, an install will go without errors, and then I can replace the missing packages, this time, being careful which repos I'm using. It can be complex and time-consuming, and of course, no guarantee of success, and sometimes, no doubt, you're better off simply reinstalling from scratch, depending upon how much time you've spent configuring. I would wait and see if someone with more knowledge comes up with a better solution but offer this in case no one does. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6 ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
