libselinux problems

[belkins]

I've just reloaded FC2 and I'm trying to update the packages.

I first do a "yum check-update" and I receive the following error message:

[root@laptop1 root]# yum update
Gathering header information file(s) from server(s)

....Unable to satisfy dependencies
Package fam-devel needs libselinux-devel, this is not available.
[root@laptop1 root]#

I found a problem similar to mine after doing a search on the forums, unfortunately it didn't help me in this situation.

I downloaded the file:

libselinux-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm

I ran the command: "rpm -ivh libselinux-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm" and I received the following:

[root@laptop1 root]# rpm -ivh libselinux-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm
warning: libselinux-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
package libselinux-1.11.4-1 is already installed

I then ran "yum update" and I received the error message at the top again!!!!

Help! Please!!! What in the world am I doing wrong???!!!

[Igoraus]

Try to upgrade package if rpm say

is already installed

whit

rpm -F packagename.rpm

[belkins]

Thanks, it appeared to work!!!

I get the following error message though:

[root@laptop1 root]# rpm -F libselinux-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm
warning: libselinux-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 4f2a6fd2[root@laptop1 root]#

Is the warning anything to be concerned about?

[Igoraus]

Dont know, you will just upgrade old installed version

you better try

yum install ibselinux

[belkins]

Hmmm....

Getting the following message now:

[root@laptop1 root]# yum update

Is it because I'm logged in as root instead of under su?

[Igoraus]

you must be root to run yum

what happend when you run

yum install ibselinux

[belkins]

After running "yum install libselinux"

root@laptop1 root]# yum install libselinux

libselinux is installed and is the latest version.

[root@laptop1 root]#

[Igoraus]

you must install

Package fam-devel needs libselinux-devel, this is not available

try something like that

yum install libselinux-devel

becose fam-devel needet

or I dont know what to do

[belkins]

Is there a package known as fam?

[sayeeth]

Yes that is correct, its actually yum install linselinux-devel

[belkins]

I tried "yum install linselinux-devel" as well and I get the following:

[root@laptop1 root]# yum install libselinux-devel

[Igoraus]

go there:

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/2/simple/2

and try to find rpm of that "devel"

[Igoraus]

or use my yum.conf

The file you need is here. Just download from any of the mirrors.
http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat....i386.rpm.html

Alternatively you can also install from this location
http://download.stmc.edu.hk/fedora/l...1.4-1.i386.rpm

I posted the problem on another board as well and somebody came back with what I was doing wrong.

I was trying to use this file:
libselinux-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm

and I should have been using this file:
libselinux-devel-1.11.4-1.i386.rpm

I certainly appreciate the help that was extended!
