These popup error messages are apparently the result of an automatic
update. I ran yum 'gambit*' to try to figure out what is happening.
Two gambit files were listed in red. I suspect that means they are
not present even though yum thinks they are installed.

The popup error message details says that gambit-c is needed by gambit-c-termite.i386.
