For about a week a biug stack of updates have been pending for CENTOS but I can't install them. The yum update command leads to dependency resolution in the usual way but it always ends in this: ---> Package poppler-utils.i386 0:0.5.4-4.4.el5_4.11 set to be updated ---> Package xorg-x11-drv-qxl.i386 0:0.0.12-1.2.el5 set to be updated --> Running transaction check --> Processing Dependency: gmime = 2.2.10-5.el5.centos for package: gmime-sharp ---> Package java-1.6.0-openjdk.i386 1:1.6.0.0-1.7.b09.el5 set to be updated http://linux.mirrors.es.net/fedora-epel/5/i386/repodata/0a2db1a48154104f63a81022653699a425c794c3-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Trying other mirror. http://www.muug.mb.ca/pub/epel/5/i386/repodata/0a2db1a48154104f63a81022653699a425c794c3-filelists.sqlite.bz2: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Trying other mirror. [...and about another thirty lines with some intended-to-be-helpful suggestions that don't work.] At first I thought it might just be that the mirrors were busy with lotsa downloads but as time goes by this is a progressively less and less satisfactory situation. Does anyone else have this problem? or a suggestion? TIA, Dave -- "It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society." Krishnamurti

I started upgrading this week, and get the occasional pkgKey not found. You might try what I found as the answer: yum clean all, yum clean metadata. mark
