Dear Friends,

Dear Friends,
While upgrading through "Yumex" ,everything is running well,except a problem is
occurring while upgrading packages.

this package must not be in the F16 repo and i guess this is already fixed
throw away yumex and type "yum cleanall && yum upgrade" in a root-shell if
you do not want to wait

Install the public key or turn on "no GPG check" under options in Yumex.

why in the world do you give such TOTALLY WRONG advises
after a correct answer?

a) .fc17 is not intented to be for F16
b) "noGPG check" generally to set is a dumb action

Hmm, interesting question.

I'm guessing, based on what's missing in his yumex output (you did notice that he had trimmed some stuff out of the middle, right)
that he has libvlc installed and has, at some point in the past, installed the npapi-vlc plugin for libvlc rpm and, perhaps, we're
not seeing an update request for libvlc (due to his trimming the output) which may also require, possibly, an update for npapi-vlc.
He does have rpmfusion-free-rawhide-source as one of his active repositories, which is where the source for npapi-vlc comes from.

So no, it's *not* in the F16 repo and perhaps no, it's not already fixed since there's nothing to fix and perhaps he enjoys using
yumex so your asinine comment to "throw away yumex" doesn't help matters at all and yes, you are correct that .fc17 is not
"intented" (intended, BTW) to be for F16 but, be that as it may, it still was picked up, probably as a result of some dependency
checking that was done.

Oh, and by the way, it's "advice", not advises, and your "correct answer" was not necessarily correct at all, just your shooting
your mouth off without doing any actual research as to what may have occurred. If you can't offer semi-knowledgeable advice, don't
attack people who do.

"yum clean all && yum upgrade" wil solve 99 out of 100 dependecnie/repo-problems
if you do not want to use a shell wait until it goes away over the time
the third option is make a bugreport that the repo needs to be fixed

tell someone he should disable gpgcheck is dumb, because you suggest if people
have problems they should do this - WTF do you understand why this exists and
what damage are hapenning if you get a bad core-package on your system which
was only installed because you disabled gpgcheck?

yum clean all and yum upgrade will solve some problems, but certainly not 99% of them. For example, I *am* a tester of rawhide and
have been fighting a battle with the x11 updates. I finally removed about 25 x11 packages that I determined weren't necessary on my
system, ran the yum update, and finally was able to get my x11 updated. yum clean all would not have done *anything* to correct
that issue.

And yes, I'm well aware of what the gpgchecking does and why it should not be disabled. However, being able to disable it is there
for a reason and he was trying to update a package from a repository that he knows and, presumably, trusts. And sometimes the gpg
keys aren't available or are screwed up.

So my last comment on this is that clicking on "no GPG check" in yumex, at least in my experience, does not make that a permanent
option. If you need/want to turn it off it needs to be done each time.

I don't know about anybody else, but I had the impression that this was
exactly what he was suggesting. And, if you really want to be careful
about it, use this command to upgrade *only* the problem package.

without EXPLICIT warning that it is generally not a good idea and
why tjhere may be enough uneducated users who starts thinking
"well if something does not run disbale gpgcheck is a solution"

a fc17 package has nothing to search in a F16 setup and so there
should be no single help to install it with any workaround

this package has to be reported as a bug and not forced
to be updated with or without gpgcheck

I agree that the only time skipping the check is a good idea is if
you've done the research to make sure that it's a known problem and the
package is OK. In this case, I know that there's an ongoing issue with
rpmfusion, and can recommend it with confidence if (and only if) the
package in question is from rpmfusion. I don't recommend turning it off
for your complete update/upgrade for obvious reasons.

this package has to be reported as a bug and not forced
to be updated with or without gpgcheck
In this case, I'd not noted that it was an F17 package and was just
thinking about the gpg issue. Thanx for catching that.

Agreed Friends,about the comments.
I request you people,not to make a war of words amongst each other.
I Thank very much to: Reindl Harald;
Kevin Martin;
Joe Zeff ;for the valuable suggestions
given by you.
I did uncheck/disable the Fedora "Rawhide" repos.,along with all the
"Test Updates" repos. from Fedora using "Apper"(A fantastic Tool).

MY UPDATE/UPGRADE problem has been solved( ~95 %).I mean after
unchecking some package tools from the update list,my UPDATE/UPGRADE
was SUCCESSFUL.

The only gripe being I can't update "vlc",which is available in the list .

What about the "ATrpms" repositories? I've disabled it
earlier...should I enable it?

The dependency problem and repository configuration is a headache in
this overall Best,stable,solid "FEDORA 16" Linux distro.

without EXPLICIT warning that it is generally not a good idea and
why tjhere may be enough uneducated users who starts thinking
"well if something does not run disbale gpgcheck is a solution"
I agree that the only time skipping the check is a good idea is if
you've done the research to make sure that it's a known problem and the
package is OK. In this case, I know that there's an ongoing issue with
rpmfusion, and can recommend it with confidence if (and only if) the
package in question is from rpmfusion. I don't recommend turning it off
for your complete update/upgrade for obvious reasons.

a fc17 package has nothing to search in a F16 setup and so there
should be no single help to install it with any workaround
Agreed.

only if you want to kill yur system over the long

ATrpms is known to replace base-packages with own versions
and sometimes other packaging (sub-packages) as the original
one and sooner or later this will end in massive depsolv
troubles - the only good at ATrpms is that after some time
if you want get rid of the troubles you are learning
how to deal with "rpm -e --nodpes" and what packages
you must not remove and after all that you know all
core packages by her first name (i was there years ago)

you should avoid to enable as much repos as you can find
in case of repos "more helps more" is totally wrong

your current problems are coming from enable things you
are not knowing what they are (rawhide as best example)

rawhide is the devel-tree and currently F17 and was
never designed for machines which should work all the time

Thank you again Reindl.
Oh! It was a mistake on my part to enable a hell lot of repos. list.
Sorry,to bother you Friend.

What I'm doing now is,whenever any update/upgrade is available,I uncheck
those packages which has ending as "*.fc17" .The rest packages with
updates(*.fc16) are fine in updating.

But Friend,please help me with this:

nobody knows where the repo "_local" lives and what the hell are you doing
with your machine - there is nothing to help except enable only

* fedora
* fedora-updates
* rpmfusion-free
* rpmfusion-free-updates
* rpmfusion-free
* rpmfusion-free-updates

to be honesty: if you are playing around with system-components without
the knowledge what are you doing you should g the hard way and
google how yum works and learn to fix this by yourself

maybe after soem hours your machine would be clean, but realize
it is not an easy job since yu have enabled all sort of braindead
repos including ATrpms and your whole setup is broked

/etc/fonts/conf.d/51-local.conf

anf if you meant "local.repo" -> this does not exist as default
nor is there any rule saying the repo-file is named exactly

modprobe problem? huumh.

local.conf in the yum plugind dir possible, I 'll guess there.

That is true, _local.repo is created by by yum-plugin-local
but only after local.conf (installed by yum-plugin-local)
has been used at least once.
Why it is named as such is explained in _local.repo

You seem very free in your dismissal of the ATrpms repo, which I have

Kaushik,

It would appear that you need to remove at least the npapi-vlc for fc17 (and probably should remove the mplayer-doc, python-vlc,
and qtractor for fc17 packages as well just to get back to cleaner system). Then npapi-vlc won't have to get updated and that
gpgcheck error won't come thru.

Actually, if you are trying to get to a rawhide-free system you may want to do an "rpm -qa | grep fc17" to get a list of the
packages you have installed from rawhide and then remove those (there's nothing inherently wrong with having rawhide packages
installed as long as you know what you are getting into...sometimes those packages have updates that fix issues that you are having
and that will never get back into the FC level you happen to be working in...just make sure you only install what you need if you
are going to "extend" into the rawhide space). Just beware of all of the dependency issues you may run into.

And now, a rant of my own.

If people would get off of their soapboxes and actually help out this list would be a lot more helpful for those that are fairly new
to Fedora and/or are trying to learn and get better at using/administering it. We were all new once and needed help along the way.
Constructive help instead of preaching typically works better at teaching.

Oh! It was a mistake on my part to enable a hell lot of repos. list.
Sorry,to bother you Friend.
What I'm doing now is,whenever any update/upgrade is available,I uncheck those packages which has ending as "*.fc17" .The rest
packages with updates(*.fc16) are fine in updating.

Kaushik,

I forgot to mention that if you still want to be able to do that update without removing any packages you could try " su -c 'rpm
--import /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-rpmfusion-free-fedora-rawhide-x86_64' " and then try your update again.

i also never make a clean install since first day with Fedora
but enable rawhide is the road to hell

Rawhide is DVELOPMENT-TREE and update with yum can be your
samllest rpoblem, if you catch the wrong day your whole
system may not start after updates
I am a noob you see my Friends
well, and that is why you should consider a question to the mailing
list before enable things you do not know exatcly what it does
which makes things easier as after mistake was done :-)

with the move to /usr/* currently being tested.
Wait until F17 is branched to upgrade.

Currently I am at ease with KDE,and I am in it while I write

*at least.
I've stated earlier,that it was my mistake to enable most of the repos. in
the repos list.
I had already disabled all "rawhide" repos and also the "ATrpms" repo in
the list.
In fact I read earlier in the Fedora main site stating,that rawhides are in
development stages for dev. purposes ,releases and testing.
Previously,while enabling the repos,I WAS CAREFUL not to enable rawhide or
testing repos. as such,but due to fault of my lack in concentration while I
was meddling the repos list,I enabled those repos without realising the
consequences.
Sorry, Friends.

If this is a legit request (as in Kaushik Guha did do this), please
remove me from "those circles" and do what is necessary to prevent more

I don't want to be a pain about this. But part of this list is designed
to inform thingws about Fedora that they may not know. Linux is case
sensitive so that calling the program Apper adds the confusion of the
list members who are trying to find the function.

Another gotcha of this program comes from the fact that it is a KDE
program. If you try to use the Add and Remove option under Gnome it
tries to remove a program. Can you guess what program it tries to
remove? If you guessed apper you win the prize.

To Aaron Konstan: Well, "apper" is the actual name represented as per
Fedora16,now this user's community gmail space is not for programming
as we all know,I think, typos,lower-upper case letter mixing, doesn't
affect much.Though you are correct that we should be true about
information & facts.
I don't want to be a pain about this. But part of this list is designed
to inform thingws about Fedora that they may not know. Linux is case
sensitive so that calling the program Apper adds the confusion of the
list members who are trying to find the function.

My problem is gone.
*I can update/upgrade packages onto my Fedora 16(x86_64) OS at ease.*
I thank all my Friends for their valuable suggestions and advice regarding
configuring(choosing) correctly the repositories from the repos list,and to
erase or deselect certain packages which were providing dependency
problems and errors.

I have read the "Mailing list guidelines", in Fedora Project, and shall
follow the rules as stated there.

Thank you all.Thanks to the Fedora community.
[solved]

tell someone he should disable gpgcheck is dumb, because you suggest if people
have problems they should do this - WTF do you understand why this exists and
what damage are hapenning if you get a bad core-package on your system which
was only installed because you disabled gpgcheck?
Rpmfusion has been having gpg problems for well over a month. Sometimes
the only way to complete an update is to do *only* the problem packages
with gpgcheck turned off, then to a normal update. It's not good, but
it's a well-known issue and there's an open ticket reporting it at the
rpmfusion bugzilla.
