Title: Yum Updates
Post by: imcintyre on October 17, 2008, 03:44:46 AM
I am having trouble getting updates to go through. I raised a bug some time ago (4044) but nothing ever came of it. I decided to try to work it out but need a bit of a push.

I went into the FAQ's to look for problems why yum wouldn't run properly. I ran this command
Code: [Select]
rpm -qa | sort | less
The result was a huge document, 1000 lines long. Of these lines, 300 of them were or the form
gpg-pubkey-********-********

Some of these lines were repeated up to 30 times, some were not repeated at all.

Is this part of the problem?
Thanks in advance for any help you can lend.

No, very unlikely to be a problem. Those are just rpm signature verification keys. For some reason rpm allows them to be imported more than once. It's harmless.

Perhaps a follow-up on questions asked in the bugtracker would be nice, also I (and I guess other developers as well) would like to continue this in the bugtracker to keep all information in one place, so  please add your answers and details here: http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4044

I have posted the results of the commands yum clean metadata and yum update to the bug.

Thx for any help.
