Huh. At first I thought the problem was: http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/python-sqlite2-2.3.3-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm Because the version that kills my yum is also 2.3.3. However, looking again more carefully, the package above is python-sqlite2, version 2.3.3, release 1.el5.rf, dated 2007-07-08, size 119 k. But yum is complaining about python-sqlite, version 0:2.3.3, release 1.el5.rf, dated 2007-03-08, size 128 k. Clearly different packages, but very confusingly so. I was beginning to doubt my sanity at this point, until I finally figured out what was wrong ... ... wait for it ... ... this was the system I had recently enabled the rpmforge-test repo on, so I could test out your new mencoder package, and I hadn't disabled it again afterwards. Clearly, that python-sqlite package was an old test that didn't go so well. :-) Oops. Sorry for the false alarm! -'f _______________________________________________ users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rpmforge.net/mailman/listinfo/users
