Dell's Linux tools break the update process on FC5

Sat Mar 31 04:11:39 CST 2007

Hi,

I have installed the following packages on FC5:

firmware-addon-dell-1.2.6-1.fc5
dell-repo-tools-1.1.2-1.fc5

Unfortunately, they are killing Yum. The error message from "package updater" is below. Do these
packages have a missing dependency? The Yum Extender is working fine with both of these Dell
packages deleted, so I don't know what "yumRepo" module it could be complaining about.

Cheers,
Chris
