Hi Gang,

I just did a "yum -y update on fully patched FC5. Doing a standard
"yum -y update" today at a command prompt gave me a most unwelcome
surprise:

Nothing. No packages were found. OK...now what do I do?
Yup:

[root@morgansmachine ~]# yum resolvedep libedata-cal-1.2.so.1
libecal-1.2.so.3
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Searching Packages for Dependency:
Setting up repositories
...
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Excluding Packages in global exclude list
Finished

[root@morgansmachine ~]# yum install
evolution-data-server-1.6.1-1.fc5.2.i386
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process

...
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Excluding Packages in global exclude list

Nothing to do

So, I guess evolution-data-server-1.6.1-1.fc5.2.i386 isn't advertising
it's provides properly? - So, wait till there's an update for it?
