yum not happy

[johan_hammy]

I tried to do a yum upgrade as part of trying to figure out why development libraries aren't on my machine and i got the following error. I am running CentOS 4.

[root@ds00209 ~]# yum upgrade

They told me to remove (although I just commented out) addons and extras. That didn't help.

grr, it looks like CentOS has decided to add spamassassin to their package list. For now you can edit your yum.conf and add an exclude for "spamassassin" (note all lowercase). Longer term we'll be renaming our SpamAssassin package to use the more "normal" lowercase format.
