Procedure

  • Get current first
yum update 
yum clean all 
yum update
yum clean all
  • Update the yum repo
rpm -Uhv http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-10-1.noarch.rpm http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/fedora/linux/releases/10/Fedora/i386/os/Packages/fedora-release-notes-10.0.0-1.noarch.rpm
  • This is important:
yum clean all
  • Do the update
yum -y update

If you run into dependency problems you can do 'yum --skip-broken -y update' to update around them. (This is not recommended. Note that swig had a packaging error in early FC10 repositories leading to the temptation to do this. It it likely you do not need swig, therefore, a better solution is rpm -e swig.)

  • Check /etc/grub.conf and reboot
shutdown -r now
  • (optional) Resolve rpmnew/rpmsave files
find /etc -name *.rpmnew
find /etc -name *.rpmsave
