environment group
I tried to install "GNOME Desktop" on F19. As a result every "yum update" shows me the following: "Warning: Environment Group gnome-desktop-environment does not exist."
I have tried to remove this warning with "yum clean all". That didn't do it. I have found bugs rhbz#920055 and rhbz#864943 to be seemingly related.
$ grep -r -H "gnome-desktop-environment" /var
/var/cache/yum/x86_64/19/updates-testing/gen/comps.xml: <id>gnome-desktop-environment</id>
/var/cache/yum/x86_64/19/updates-testing/gen/comps.xml: <id>gnome-desktop-environment</id>
/var/cache/yum/x86_64/19/fedora/gen/comps.xml: <id>gnome-desktop-environment</id>
/var/cache/yum/x86_64/19/fedora/gen/comps.xml: <id>gnome-desktop-environment</id>
Binary file /var/cache/PackageKit/groups.sqlite matches
Binary file /var/lib/rpm/Packages matches
Binary file /var/lib/rpm/Basenames matches
/var/lib/yum/groups/environment:gnome-desktop-environment
Binary file /var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db matches
Some of these are binaries and - mostly - uneditable. I tried editing /var/lib/yum/groups/environment
to read gnome-desktop-environment as "false" in lieu of "16". That resulted in failed execution of yum. I could try using dnf provided that someone thinks that it will lead to a solution.
How do I remove this warning?
I don't know how it will bear on your problem, but I've been using dnf regularly for a while now and find it to be quite a bit faster than yum.
I have, also, been using DNF for quite a while. YUM is still much more extensive.
