Thanks very much.

This is why we don't typically use the atrpms repo. You are destined to run into dependency errors, like this one. Do you use the Python Imaging Library?

The Python Imaging Library (PIL) adds image processing capabilities to your Python interpreter.

If you don't use PIL then try

yum --disablerepo=atrpms update

If you don't use PIL then try

yum --disablerepo=atrpms update

Thanks for reply.
I have already used Python Imaging Library.
I have used

yum --disablerepo=atrpms update

too,
but not resolve the problem.
I'm installing FC17.
Hix.

Did I read right? You're reinstalling Fedora 17?

[MaartenBlaauw]

I had the same. Suggested way out:
yum remove LIP
(on my system this also removed dependencies hplip and hplip-gui, for hp printers)
yum update
yum install hplip-gui

This appears to be some sort of problem/interaction with the rpms. I have the same problem (the recent date of this post suggests it's a new problem that's just emerged). Disabling atrpms didn't help. (On a side note, I have to ask, what exactly is atrpms designed to provide, and if most people are supposed to disable them why is it enabled by default? Not meant as a rhetorical/critical question, btw, but out of sheer curiosity)

MaartenBlaauw's suggestion didn't achieve anything either; same result. Indeed, it said initially LIP wasn't installed, so by trying an uninstall of hplip, then running the update the same error message as the original poster resulted.

I found the following note: http://www.gossamer-threads.com/list...ms/devel/16269
which suggests that you need to rebuild PIL from source. I will probably try that tonight. Ugly.

atrpms is not part of any default Fedora installation. If someone is using atrpms then they installed that repository deliberately. When the repository file is installed it is likely set as enabled by default.

For as long as I've been using Fedora (FC1 or 2) it has been widely known that using the atrpms repo can cause problems with rpm dependencies and so, for as long as I can remember, using that repo has been discouraged.

It can get, as you said, ugly, but that's not Fedora's fault at all.

Looks to me as though there isn't even a Fedora 17 branch in their repos.

I just installed the atrpms repo on my server, just for kicks. Before I did that I updated the system. Once I had the atrpms repo setup I issued

PHP Code:

yum check-update 


Here's the result:

As you can see, there are several packages that atrpms is offering to replace. I'm hesitant because I'd bet there would be issues with at least one of them. Now let me go disable that repo.

PHP Code:

sed -i 's/enabled=1/enabled=0/g' /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms*

As I mentioned, disabling the atrpms repo still caused the same error, so unfortunately that's not a solution. To be absolutely certain I deleted the atrpms repo from yum.repos.d and checked that it was completely gone with yum repolist all. The error STILL occurs, in exactly the same way!

Furthermore, I must report with frustration that an attempted rebuild as per the other appnote also didn't work.
First, yum-builddep PIL-1.1.7-10.src.rpm failed with exactly the same error as before, and then rpmbuild --rebuild PIL-1.1.7-10.src.rpm also fails:
error: line 13: Dependency tokens must begin with alpha-numeric, '_' or '/': Requires: %{python_libdir}

At this point I'm willing to state that it is Fedora's fault, or certainly they've got to be responsible for fixing it because it's gone beyond the ability of ordinary mortals to fix.

[Alex Rast]

Fixed at last. Here's the details.

1) Delete atrpms repo entirely from yum.repos.d.
2) Uninstall PIL. (this also uninstalls HPLIP as another poster remarks)
3) Update Python to 2.7.3-7.2.fc17
4) Reinstall PIL (or if you have HPLIP reinstalling it will have the same effect)

[Mynos]

The solution is next:

yum remove PIL

the next step

yum update

this solution for me

enjoy xD

You have got it wrong!, This is nothing to do with fedora.

The reason you can't build the atrpms stuff is because you failed to install the atrpms rpm build macros.

[root@main-pc leigh]# rpm -E %{python_libdir}

If atrpms use standard accepted macros (in this case %{python_sitearch} ) you wouldn't of had this issue.
