The current sysklogd and vixie-cron package conflict in /var/log/cron. vixie-cron wants it to be a logfile, sysklogd wants it to be a directory where it stores info warnings and error. When sysklogd has it's way (/var/log/cron is a directory) vixie-cron won't start. When /var/log/cron is a file, sysklogd complains about it, but does start. and here are some file / rpm conflicts I bumped into while updating my sys to the current cooker: emacs-20.7-9mdk... failed, but will try again... rpm -Uvh emacs-20.7-9mdk.i586.rpm file /usr/bin/b2m from install of emacs-20.7-9mdk conflicts with file from package xemacs-extras-21.1.11-1mdk file /usr/share/man/man1/etags.1.bz2 from install of emacs-20.7-9mdk conflicts with file from package xemacs-extras-21.1.11-1mdk mod_php-4.0.2-3mdk... failed, but will try again... php-4.0.2-3mdk... failed, but will try again... php-devel-4.0.2-3mdk... failed, but will try again... php-manual-4.0.2-3mdk... failed, but will try again...A rpm -Uvh mod_php-4.0.2-3mdk.i586.rpm php-4.0.2-3mdk.i586.rpm php-devel-4.0.2-3mdk.i586.rpm php-manual-4.0.2-3mdk.i586.rpm error: failed dependencies: mod_php3 is needed by piranha-gui-0.4.14-5mdk php = 4.0.1pl2 is needed by mod_php-mysql-4.0.1pl2-6mdk php = 4.0.1pl2 is needed by mod_php-pgsql-4.0.1pl2-6mdk php = 4.0.1pl2 is needed by mod_php-ldap-4.0.1pl2-6mdk php = 4.0.1pl2 is needed by mod_php-imap-4.0.1pl2-6mdk php = 4.0.1pl2 is needed by mod_php-gd-4.0.1pl2-6mdk php = 4.0.1pl2 is needed by php-standalone-4.0.1pl2-4mdk php-standalone-4.0.1pl2-6mdk... failed, but will try again... piranha-0.4.14-5mdk... failed, but will try again... rpm -Uvh piranha-0.4.14-5mdk.i586.rpm file /usr/share/man/man8/ipvsadm.8.bz2 from install of piranha-0.4.14-5mdk conflicts with file from package ipvsadm-0.9.15-2.2.16mdk xemacs-21.1.12-1mdk... failed, but will try again... xemacs-el-21.1.12-1mdk... failed, but will try again... xemacs-extras-21.1.12-1mdk... failed, but will try again... xemacs-info-21.1.12-1mdk... failed, but will try again... xemacs-mule-21.1.12-1mdk... failed, but will try again... rpm -Uvh emacs-20.7-9mdk.i586.rpm xemacs-extras-21.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm xemacs-21.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm xemacs-el-21.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm xemacs-info-21.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm xemacs-mule-21.1.12-1mdk.i586.rpm file /usr/bin/b2m conflicts between attemped installs of xemacs-extras-21.1.12-1mdk and emacs-20.7-9mdk file /usr/bin/etags conflicts between attemped installs of xemacs-extras-21.1.12-1mdk and emacs-20.7-9mdk file /usr/share/man/man1/etags.1.bz2 conflicts between attemped installs of xemacs-extras-21.1.12-1mdk and emacs-20.7-9mdk
