It’s so long time to issue yum-update on my F15 boxes.
found the emerald packages already removed from repo…

[Workaround to continue running Emerald:]
just go back to 0.9.4~
1. Download essential packages:
[x86_64]

wget http://mirrors.reflected.net/fedora/linux/releases/15/Everything/x86_64/os/Packages/{compiz-0.9.4-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm,compiz-gtk-0.9.4-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm,ccsm-0.9.4-1.fc15.noarch.rpm,compiz-plugins-main-0.9.4-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm,compizconfig-python-0.9.4-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm,libcompizconfig-0.9.4-1.fc15.x86_64.rpm,emerald-0.8.5-0.4.git90c9604441.fc15.x86_64.rpm,emerald-themes-0.5.2-6.fc15.noarch.rpm } |

wget http://mirrors.reflected.net/fedora/linux/releases/15/Everything/i386/os/Packages/{compiz-0.9.4-1.fc15.i686.rpm,compiz-gtk-0.9.4-1.fc15.i686.rpm,ccsm-0.9.4-1.fc15.noarch.rpm,compiz-plugins-main-0.9.4-1.fc15.i686.rpm,compizconfig-python-0.9.4-1.fc15.i686.rpm,libcompizconfig-0.9.4-1.fc15.i686.rpm,emerald-0.8.5-0.4.git90c9604441.fc15.i686.rpm,emerald-themes-0.5.2-6.fc15.noarch.rpm} |
2. Remove current 0.9.5.0 compiz related packages.
1 |
rpm -qa | grep 0.9.5.0 | xargs rpm -e --nodeps |
3. install the RPMs downloaded above.
4. edit the /etc/yum.conf to block compiz/emerald related updates.
1 |
echo "exclude=ccsm* compiz* compizconfig-python* compiz-gtk* compiz-plugins-main* libcompizconfig*" >> /etc/yum.conf |
Well now I’ve blocked updates on compiz and libreoffice… is there any more?
