Fw: Re: yum upgrade F8->F9

[Globe Trotter]

Hi,

I did the following after installing the newkey rpms. 
 
%yum install fedora-release\*
 
This got the new stuff (rpm) with the newkey in it. It
worked on one machine, and it is up and running. 
 
On a second machine, however, I get the following after
processing dependencies:
 
Finished Dependency Resolution
gnupg2-2.0.9-2.fc8.i386 from installed has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: libldap-2.3.so.0 is needed by package gnupg2-2.0.9-2.fc8.i386 (installed)
Error: Missing Dependency: libldap-2.3.so.0 is needed by package gnupg2-2.0.9-2.fc8.i386 (installed)

That is it. It appears that the gnupg2 in f9 is 2.0.9-1 and the one in f8 is 2-0.9-2 hence the problem. Any suggestions as to how this may be tacked?

Enabling updates-testing is to no avail. 
 
Many thanks and best wishes,
Trotter
