I think I had this problem before but I don't remember what was done to correct it. I just tried to do an update and got this error message.

I have boot as a separate partition, this time around I have set it to ext4 for the first time. That partition is only 250 Mb, but that has always been sufficient in the past, perhaps I am holding too many kernels or kernel versions?
I have tried to install this package with yum and also directly - download the rpm, then rpm -Uvh ....
Both yum and rpm hang - yum when running the transaction test.
Any ideas about this package.
This is running F12, uname -r => 2.6.31.9-174.fc12.i686
I was trying to update my Fedora 15 amd64 when a Error Notification popped up saying "An unspecified TRANSACTION ERROR has occured". More details: "could not add package update for fedora-release-rawhide-15-3(noarch)updates: fedora-release-rawhide-15-3.noarch".

I very rarely use xfce and I don't quite know what exo is, but I'd like to fix this problem if it's not too involved.
I spent some time on this issue and I just wanted to share a resolution that was difficult to find (at least for me).Yum was working fine for me for a long time on my Fedora 12 installation x64, when suddenly it stopped during transaction checks. It didn't matter which package I was installing, or if I performed an update or anything. Always in the same place, and it always required a kill -9 to stop the process. Even with debugging turned on in yum (-d 10 -e 10 --rpmverbosity=10) it would not display an error...just hang during the transaction check. I tried the following to no avail:
Code:
# rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db.*
# yum clean all
# rpm -v -v rebuilddb
Still, it would lock after the transaction test. The only thing that solved my issue was running:
Code:
# strace yum -y update This showed me that I had a stale NFS mount that was in a hung state. I tried umount but it just showed that the device was busy and would not unmount. The only way to fix it was to perform:
Code:
# umount -l /mnt/data which allowed the stale mount to be removed. Once that was cleaned up, everything worked. I struggled with this because there were no debugging messages, and I had no idea the transaction check would go through all of my mounted drives. However I just wanted others to know about this, because it was a rare issue, and I had trouble finding the solution.
I have fedora 12 dual boot windows/ xp on intel d845gvsr intel motherboard, intel celeron processor 2 ghz, inbuilt board graphics, 1 gb ddr1 RAM. I get this notification that updates available and when I try to download it it fails and I get the following error.

The error says its a repository not found, but I am very new at this and have no clue as to where to fix this. Alongside of this, is the fact that since one of the updates is failing, the rest don't install either. So the updates keep on piling.
This is the error shown in the More Details window:

I have tried yum clean all, yum clean metadata, rpm --rebuilddb, and even removing /var/cache/yum. yum info and yum list both work fine. Naturally, this yum problem is preventing me from updating my system.
I've been trying to update Fedora 15 for weeks. I always end up with a transaction error and the update stalls. The error reads: GPG keys listed for RPM Fusion for Fedora Rawhide-free repository are installed but they are not correct for this package. Check that the correct key urls are configured for this repository.
This is far too involved for a linux newbie, I think my only option is to reformat and reinstall. This is so frustrating, there are 250 MB of updates available that I can't access.
I know there are hundreds of similar questions about suspend on Ubuntu, but none of the fixes they use work for me. This bug is the only thing that stops me from using Ubuntu - I put computer to sleep (suspend to ram) and after resume I have no network. The only way to get network back is to restart.
Looking at the logs, it seems that NetworkManager starts, finds the device and then fails to complete DHCP transaction. I don't know what causes the problem, probably this line: "via-rhine: Reset not complete yet. Trying harder." Does anyone know possible reason for this? Here is the log:

I'm trying to get the first update. I'm getting looped with "Transaction error," and it won't start.

Im running an update through YUM from my CentOS5 64bit box and came across this error:Transaction Check

I've done some research on this and found solutions on how to rectify (i.e. reconfig YUM repositories etc.) but still same issue.
Getting "DBus error : Unable to get transaction id from packagekit." when trying to update. I can't update or install software through the package manager anymore. The yellow exclamation point won't go away on the toolbar.

I switched from Ubuntu to Fedora and I'm having a little bit of trouble understanding why I cannot update my system. Fedora seems to be a little bit more complicated than Ubuntu to update and to do other things... I'm still willing to try it because it has a good reputation and good reviews so I will go ahead and give it a shot but before I do that I need to update it. I have an HP pavilion notebook dv2000. Just installed Fedora 15 and my system is telling me that I have over 700 updates! when I click on install updates I get an error:

With the last set of patches and updates my Fedora 12 box will get to starting ATD and the screen blnks a few times and the boot process stops.I tried typing "I" for interactive boot so I could skip "atd" and try to recover the box without any luck.

A minimal test case, based on the as-distrubuted cwrsync.cmd, fails with "rsync: change_dir ... No such file or directory (2)". The listed directory looks strange.
The sample cwrsync.cmd was modified only by adding this line at the end:
Code:
rsync --verbose /cygdrive/c/WINDOWS/system32/drivers/etc CW8vWXP@10.0.2.2::CW8vWXP
The full error message (my bolding) is:

My wireless worked perfectly on my clean install of Fedora 11. However, after the system update, my wireless continued to work perfectly for about ten minutes. Then it dropped the network connection. however, it still says that it is connected, although I cannot load any web pages, nor get email, nor connect to anything at all.When I reload the connection it continues to say it is connected, after prompting for the password that used to be saved and used automatically. It now works for maybe a few seconds at a time, loading part of a web page, then stopping.
