Generally all seems well, but I have a few questions/comments. 1. After installing yum-conf-30rolling-2.SL.noarch.rpm, is there a difference between "yum update" and "yum upgrade"? I tried each on different machines and the results seemed identical. 2. This is very minor, but starting with an up-to-date SL303 I got: rpm -Uvh /tmp/yum-conf-30rolling-2.SL.noarch.rpm Preparing... package yum-conf-303-2.SL (which is newer than yum-conf-30rolling-2.SL) is already installed Using --oldpackage worked. 3. Installing yum-conf-30rolling-2.SL.noarch.rpm left my /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron but added an executable /etc/cron.daily/yum.cron.rpmnew. Should the rpmnew version be non-executable or is cron smart enough to ignore *rpmnew? 4. The librsvg2 package generated the following error on all three machines I tried: librsvg2 100 % done 53/251 /usr/bin/update-gdk-pixbuf-loaders: line 27: /etc/gtk-2.0/i386-redhat-linux-gnu/gdk-pixbuf.loaders: No such file or directory error: %post(librsvg2-2.2.3-6) scriptlet failed, exit status 1 -- John Franks <[log in to unmask]> Dept of Mathematics, Northwestern Univ
