Hi there - I have hosed my install of Yum on my Fedora Core 6 box during the upgrade process to Core 8 using this guide:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/YumUpgradeFaq#head-5732a9fb352ab548e57075669942e1bd69028dcc

Once i got to the stage where I was running the yum upgrade command, I got these errors:

Transaction Check Error:
 file /usr/lib/libmp4v2.so.0.0.0 conflicts between attempted installs 
of libmp4v2-1.5.0.1-5.fc8 and libmp4v2_0-1.25-2.fc8
 file /usr/lib/libbeecrypt.so.6.4.0 from install of beecrypt-4.1.2-13 
conflicts with file from package libbeecrypt6-4.1.2-10.1_14.fc4.at
 file /usr/lib/libao.so.2.1.3 from install of libao-0.8.8-2.fc8 
conflicts with file from package libao2-0.8.6-0_3.fc4.at
 file /etc/X11/XvMCConfig from install of libXvMC-1.0.4-3.fc8 conflicts 
with file from package libXvMCW-0.9.3-4.fc4.at

So, being the smartypants I am I did this and removed them:

[root at 192 ~]# rpm -e --nodeps libmp4v2

[root at 192 ~]# rpm -e --nodeps beecrypt

[root at 192 ~]# rpm -e --nodeps libao

[root at 192 ~]# rpm -e --nodeps libXvMC

I can hear you all collectively groan.

Running the yum command again, I get this:

[root at 192 mythtv]# yum upgrade
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

   libbeecrypt.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.4.4 (#1, Oct 23 2006, 13:58:00)
[GCC 4.1.1 20061011 (Red Hat 4.1.1-30)]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to
the yum faq at:
  http://wiki.linux.duke.edu/YumFaq

Reading the faq, I ran these python commands to show what the error message is:

[root at 192 mythtv]# python
Python 2.4.4 (#1, Oct 23 2006, 13:58:00)
[GCC 4.1.1 20061011 (Red Hat 4.1.1-30)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import yum
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 20, in ?
    import rpm
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rpm/__init__.py", line 7, in ?
    from _rpm import *
ImportError: libbeecrypt.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It would seem rpm and rpmbuild are similally hosed:

[root at 192 mythtv]# rpm
rpm: error while loading shared libraries: libbeecrypt.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[root at 192 mythtv]# rpmbuild
bash: rpmbuild: command not found

Can anyone help me fix yum or should I use the DVD of Core 8 to update the system at this point?

Cheers

Giacomo
