Thank you Lisa!!

I was able to go from CenOS 6.0 to 6.4 in about an hour.  Not bad considering 
this is a single core bottom of the line HP laptop that is about 3.5 years old. 

I was able to install GIT as well w/o any problems.

Life is g00d!!

Hi,

I have a dev box that I configured in Dec 2011 - about 17 months ago.  I have 
not updated it.

It is CentOS Linux release 6.0 (Final)



I issued "yum update: and I get :

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest



Did you have to install or lock any packages in order to install a specific 
package or build?Each package requires it's own minimum version of python, that 
needs to match your distro version and bus type (64 bit / 32 bit).  So if the 
requirement is for Python 2.4 and your system has been updated to 2.6 under 
most circumstances your packages will be fine.  However, there exist packages 
that can't be updated due to interdependence.  

 If I skip updating Python is that going to cause me problems?


Yes, python will need to be updated.
These errors indicate that package management is attempting to install the el5 
version of packages rather than the correct distro.




Solution:  Reinstall RPMFORGE

# wget 
http://packages.sw.be/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
# rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm

# yum clean all# yum update


Thanks!!
If you have the ability to boot into Knoppix and dd the full system to an 
external USB or SAN, I would recommend doing so before the updates, should you 
have a great deal of configuration completed and important systems/services.
