Hmm.. Maybe some more information?

HI,

I am also having the similar problem as above.

A little back ground about how this caused.
1. First I am a new user to linux
2. I came across a XXXXXXXXXX.src.rpm file and the packagekit manager could not install it hence i thought it could be installable using yum and searched for yum in all the add/remove software section ... and then i could not decide which file to download hence i installed all the files with yum-* as the names.....
the error message is


Error Type: <type 'exceptions.TypeError'>

Mem: 2.0 Gb

GNOME 2.24.2



Thank you

Clean Mind what are you tring to do
I am pulling out the Crystal ball and looking DEEP in to it and i see some one maybe typing
" yum update" ??? -- what are you doing .

medampudi
I have NEVER heard of a source code rpm called this
XXXXXXXXXX.src.rpm ( that is 3 1/3 tripleX's -- must be very naughty )
you do know that a src file is the source code and dose not install anything that can be ran

[Demz]

do this yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update dbus should cure the problem

then reboot the system an re-try

When I enable yum-plugins by editing gedit /etc/yum.conf
plugins=1

then I try to use gnome-package* GUI for add-remove software this all is get
