I still got the dependency errors.
I use a local fedora and fedora-updates repo for my home PCs, so I
changed the yum repo files to use the default mirrors instead of my
internal repo. After doing another "yum clean all" and "yum clean
metadata", yum was able to resolve all dependencies. Strange.
I changed the repo files back to use my internal yum repo, and the
dependencies were resolved okay, too. Even stranger. But, when I
proceeded with the install, yum complained that it couldn't find the
following packages:
enca-1.9-3.fc6.i386.rpm
libdvdread-0.9.7-2.fc7.i386.rpm
These packages aren't on the Fedora 7 DVD. Since my local fedora.repo
is built from that DVD, the files can't obviously be found. Why aren't
those packages on the DVD?
I suppose I have to change how I have my mirror setup, but that would
really suck - I save a lot of space by mounting the Fedora 7 DVD iso and
using it for my local fedora repo instead of copying the files off.
