See if the Rawdide repo is enabled.

It is, I know.

But I assume that on my other machines
the status of the files in /etc/yum.repos.d/
was somehow modified.
I suppose my question is,
when did this happen
and how was it missed on this machine?

Most likely you has Rawhide enabled and used "yum
update" to go from F9
to F10. This would normally disable Rawhide, so either it
didn't or you
re-enabled it unintentionally.

about 2 years ago I installed rawhide at the advice of the top rawhide guy

he said "with rawhide you'll be continually faced with dependency problems."

Maybe I saved that email!

It was such a mess I had to load Fedora from scratch.

I want to use Fedora not play with it.
