nm about jhead - i see thats from extras, not arts repo

any ideas about the mysql error?

anything to do with my architecture x86_64 ?

Yeah, thats x86_64 related. They actually install a lot of i386/x86_64 packages alongside one another, in this case your installing 4.1.21 alongside of 4.1.20 rather than upgrading it.

maybe im noobing out here, but whats the difference between a yum upgrade and yum update for this issue?

I've done both and get the same results. Shouldnt "yum update" update the package for the arch that is currently installed?

excellent question, yum upgrade will use the Obsoletes tag, update will not

breun · Unread post by **breun** » Mon Feb 12, 2007 10:02 am

Try man yum for questions like that. yum update equals yum --obsoletes update.
