.conflict between initscripts and pppd

のエラーが発生。 Google で検索してみたところ、どうやら、先日リリースされた Fedora Core 2 Update: ppp-2.4.2-3.FC2.1 をインストールしようとするときに問題が発生するらしいことが判明。

FedoraNEWS.ORG の記事によると、

NEWS 2004-07-10
There has been a report that this package conflicts with initscripts during yum update.
It's been already reported to the package maintainer with Fedora Project.

Additional Comment #9 From Alexandre Oliva  on 2004-07-10 16:37 -------
 
This is not fixed until the initscripts build is pushed out as an
update for FC2.  Sure the original cause of the problem is the rpm
issue, but fixed packages have to be pushed out anyway, and having
this bug as a dup of a bug on rpm is not going to be a good reminder
of the need for pushing the fix out.

そこで、とりあえず、 ppp パッケージをアップデート対象から外し、

$ sudo yum --exclude=ppp update

アップデートしてみたところ、その他のパッケージについては、無事アップデートすることができた。問題が解決するまでは、「--exclude=ppp」オプションを付加してアップデートするようにしておけば良さそうだ。

この問題は解決した模様。
