Trying yum update on SME7
« on: December 25, 2005, 09:06:11 PM »
I am trying to install the updates and I get:

Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Text::Autoformat) is needed by package e-smith-rpm

I did a perl -MCPAN -e shell and did:

cpan> install  Text::Autoformat

And it installed, then yum clean all and then reissued the yum update and still the same error :-?  

Any suggestion?

I got this error as well, but I was doing a yum update trying to go from beta 8 to beta 9 without having to re-install the whole system.  Is that what everyone else was trying to do?  Is this method supposed to be supported.

This one is in the bug tracker:

And is also raised in this thread:

which is why it is nice to have bugs only in the bug tracker.
