It appears that I'm not alone in noticing that the latest kernel,
kernel-2.6.22.7-85.fc7.i686, has been something of a problem.
I've had no problem installing kernel updates before this. I did
install the fastestmirror plugin since then, but disabling it
hasn't helped. I can see the RPM file kernel-2.6.22.7-85.fc7.i686.rpm
on <http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/updates/7/i386/>,
though I didn't see it there before my last post.
Yum just tells me the kernel package is a missing dependency. Weird!
And in yumex, only '2.6.22.5-76' series kernels are displayed under
the 'Available' context, possibly because that's the one I'm currently
running. I've tried both yumex and 'yum update'; and 'yum search
kernel' finds no new kernels.
Is this likely to be a repository problem? Running yum with debugging
on (yum -v -d 10 update) wasn't helpful.
Thanks for the response.
