Greetings

I run Fedora 12 on a laptop. Quite the happy camper BUT

Since installing this Fedora 12, (I am way out of contract with Empire Linux), when I seek to update there is 505 updates and maybe 30 "needs to go first" add-ons.

Each and every time I get a failure. I have tried updating once a month for about 6 months - each time the same FAIL - so I thought I'd ask you. I suspect the update addresses are wrong but I am ignorant as to how to correct this issue.

Failure message reads:

"An internal system error has occurred - a problem that we were not expecting has occurred. Please report this bug in your distribution bug tracker with the error description."


I do have the details. Thanks for any assist...
