So since I am not suppose to update the kernel (so I have read) I tried:
yum update --exclude=kern*
But I see things like:
---> Package xl2tpd.armv7hl 0:1.3.6-1.fc19 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: kernel-modules-extra for package: xl2tpd-1.3.6-1.fc19.armv7hl
and the updated stops with:
Error: Package: xl2tpd-1.3.6-1.fc19.armv7hl (updates) Requires: kernel-modules-extra You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
So how do I update everything I can?
The answer is in the error message.... "yum update --exclude=kern* --skip-broken"
The difference between my reading that error message and you reading it is that you know that it is OK to '--skip-broken' I have never did this before, and did not know what is safe. Of course supposedly this is still a 'blow away' build. If I get it wrong, I will know for next time.
thanks for the help
