Yum/Bugzilla feature requests

Recently while running Fedora 16, my attempt at: yum update --skip-broken failed with: warning: rpmts_HdrFromFdno: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 069c8460: NOKEY Retrieving key from file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora-x86_64 The GPG keys listed for the "Fedora 16 - x86_64" repository are already installed but they are not correct for this package. Check that the correct key URLs are configured for this repository. Looking at bug #735037, It seems that there was a problem with package btrfs-progs. Couldn't yum refers to 'this package' but does not say which package was the problems. If it at least said which package was involved, I could have uninstalled that package and updated everything else. Better yet 'yum --skip-broken' could have removed that package from consideration, redid the dependencies and updated the remaining packages. As a side note, I checked bugzilla for problems with yum and finding none submitted bug #735235. It takes a while for bug reports to show up in the bugzilla search, so a day or so later when I got a confirmation I found the earlier bug report. I found no way in bugzilla to close my bug report by merging it into the earlier bug report. I think such an ability by the original submitter would help the people working on fixing bug, (and bug submitters,) by prefiltering the individual bug reports to which they needed to look at. -- Barry Fishman
