yum update stops due to errors

[mha]

Hi,
I have FC9 up and running without problems until recently, when yum update started receiving errors like this:

libsmbclient-3.2.0-1.rc1.14.fc9.i386 from installed has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: libtdb.so.1(TDB_1.1) is needed by package libsmbclient-3.2.0-1.rc1.14.fc9.i386 (installed)
samba-client-3.2.0-1.rc1.14.fc9.i386 from installed has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: libtdb.so.1(TDB_1.1) is needed by package samba-client-3.2.0-1.rc1.14.fc9.i386 (installed)
Error: Missing Dependency: libtdb.so.1(TDB_1.1) is needed by package samba-client-3.2.0-1.rc1.14.fc9.i386 (installed)


Everytime I send yum update -y, I receive such errors; accordingly I have no updates !!!

Can some1 help ?

Hello:
Thanks

Go ahead and run

yum remove samba-client-3.2.0-1.rc1.15.fc9.i386 libsmbclient-3.2.0-1.rc1.15.fc9.i386

and this time, answer Yes.

When it's finished type and enter

yum clean all

then try your yum update again.

Hello,
I removed them and now update is working. What's the problem ? Why you requested to remove the latest version ? and why I had 2 version of each ?


thanks,

Likely because you had an interrupted yum update session which left you with some duplicate packages installed.

Because those had no dependencies as they were part of an incomplete update that you had performed at some point. As such they were removed without any issues using yum.

[root@localhost yum.repos.d]# rpm -qa | grep totem-mozplugin
totem-mozplugin-2.23.2-4.fc9.i386

I don't have duplicated packages, so what to do?

Post your repolist

I'm having the exact same problem as M4rc0. Here is my repo list:

[todd@localhost ~]$ yum repolist
Loaded plugins: protectbase, refresh-packagekit
repo id              repo name                                 status

updates              Fedora 9 - i386 - Updates                 enabled

This the first updating problem I've had in Fedora 9.

This is the third person (including me) with these dep issues. I feel they just havent hit the repo yet and suggest you just wait it out a day.
