I'm not sure what I need to do to get yum working again, but as of now it's not cooperating. I'm editing files, but not sure if I'm actually going the right direction or just making more of a mess here. Thanks ahead of time for anyone who can help me get this going the right way.
I
upgraded FC3 to FC4 earlier today. Everything upgraded without displaying any error messages. I'm using KDE desktop environment if that makes any difference.
Currently, this is what I have written in yum.conf:
[root@localhost etc]# more yum.conf
Code:
[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
pkgpolicy=newest
distroverpkg=redhat-release
tolerant=1
exactarch=1

# PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo

# JPackage is a GREAT repository for Java Software.
# However, you may have to compile some SRPMs to use it,
# so it's commented out by default. See
# <http://mirrors.sunsite.dk/jpackage/1.6/generic/non-free/SRPMS>
# For the SRPMs, and <http://www.jpackage.org/rebuilding.php> for
# the general details.
#
# Note: JPackage IS compatible with the fedora.us repositories.
# You can use JPackage and fedora.us at the same time, without
# any trouble. It's also compatible with the Alternate Repositories,
# for the most part.

=============================================
What is this?
Downloaded the yumfix.txt script per thread:
http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=59904
downloaded and installed the file under /etc since there was not clear direction as to where I should place the file, so I hope that doesn't matter... and I was in the same directory folder when I typed ./yumfix.txt
[root@localhost etc]# ./yumfix.txt
Code:

==================================================
Unlike per thread:
http://fedoraforum.org/forum/showthr...=yum+libraries
I did not want to do a
clean install, I went the
upgrade path (since it was made available as an option to me) so here I'm stuck with this yum problem.
