yum update error

[zabolots]

Haven't updated the system (Fedora 9) in a while (~2 months) and now I'm getting errors when I try:

[zabolots@dvarchive ~]$ sudo yum -y update

yum clean all
yum --disablerepo=atrpms update

Have you installed rpmfusion?

Can you post output of yum repolist?

Just a few things that come to mind.

On a Fedora 9 box that I have these are the repositories:

glenn@slowhand ~]$ yum repolist

repo id                             repo name                                              status

repof9 is just a local repo that replaces fedora.repo on my computer. You should see Fedora in place of it on your system.

BTW, either the "yum clean all" did the trick or it was a temporary glitch because it worked this last time I did an update.

OK. Good that it's working.
