[ATrpms-users] Conflict Between ATrpms and KDE for Redhat on FC6

[John Welch]

I'm running a FC6 system with many of the typical 3rd party repo's: ATrpms,
Freshrpms, Dag, Dries, and KDE for Redhat.  On the advice of this list when
I posted about a previous issue, I've been trying to use Smart (GUI) to keep
my system up to date.  However, I haven't been able get the right
configuration for the 'KDE for Redhat' repo with Smart, and have been using
yum to keep this repo updated.

Recently when I ran a 'yum check-update' command it showed that, amongst
other packages, kdepim had an update (version 3.5.5-0.3) available from the
KDE for Redhat repo.  However when I ran 'yum update' it failed.  It showed
that in order to do this update I needed pinentry-qt version 0.7.2-3.
However this package had a dependency of pinentry version 0.7.2-3.
Currently I have pinentry version 0.7.2-12 from the ATrpms repo.  I thought
I had this problem solved by downgrading my pinentry version and then
setting up the ATrpms repo in yum to ignore pinentry.  But when I went back
to do another Smart update it upgraded pinentry, downgraded kdepim, and
removed pinentry-qt.  So now I'm right back to where I started.  Maybe I
need to configure Smart to ignore pinentry and/or figure out how to get the
'KDE for Redhat' repo working with it, but right now I don't know how to do
either; I'm still learning the ins and outs of Smart, as I had been almost
exclusively using yum to update this and all my other RedHat/Fedora systems.

Any advice on how to solve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

TIA,
John
