Hi, Is anyone else noticing a problem updating Firefox and its dependencies? It appears that xulrunner-devel 1.9.0.6-1.el5 wants xulrunner 1.9.0.5-1.el5, but "this is not available". Following is the output from Yum when I attempt to update Firefox on CentOS 5.2 X86_64: ===========Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package firefox.x86_64 0:3.0.6-1.el5.centos set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: xulrunner >= 1.9.0.6-1 for package: firefox ---> Package firefox.i386 0:3.0.6-1.el5.centos set to be updated --> Running transaction check ---> Package xulrunner.x86_64 0:1.9.0.6-1.el5 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: xulrunner = 1.9.0.5-1.el5 for package: xulrunner-devel --> Processing Dependency: xulrunner = 1.9.0.5-1.el5 for package: xulrunner-devel ---> Package xulrunner.i386 0:1.9.0.6-1.el5 set to be updated --> Running transaction check ---> Package xulrunner-devel.x86_64 0:1.9.0.6-1.el5 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ============================================================================ Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================Updating: firefox x86_64 3.0.6-1.el5.centos updates 12 M firefox i386 3.0.6-1.el5.centos updates 12 M xulrunner x86_64 1.9.0.6-1.el5 updates 10 M xulrunner i386 1.9.0.6-1.el5 updates 9.9 M Updating for dependencies: xulrunner-devel x86_64 1.9.0.6-1.el5 updates 3.6 M Transaction Summary ============================================================================Install 0 Package(s) Update 5 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s) Total download size: 48 M Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: Running rpm_check_debug ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve: Package xulrunner-devel needs xulrunner = 1.9.0.5-1.el5, this is not available.

Try uninstalling xulrunner-devel, do the update, and then reinstalling xulrunner-devel if you really need it.

I don''t think I need xulrunner-devel for anything, so I''ll just leave that alone for now. Cheers, --Bill

Usually uninstalling the i386 base package allows the update of the x86_64 version, at least for me.
