It didn't really show you what it was doing but after a while the prompt came back and when we ran --dupes again there were no packages listed. But now we notice something else. For example the yum 3.2.21 package is showing the fc9 version. And when you do 'yum list yum' it only shows you the fc9 installed version. But I know there is a version in fc10 and it should have shown that as available. Also the rpmdb shows 753 fc10 and 283 fc9 for packages by release. But yet 'yum update' shows no packages available for update. ????
