Dear All,

This is my first email to any mailing list so pardon me for anything
inappropriate and do let me know about it.

This morning when I did my usual yum makecache fast followed by yum update,
I received the below error:

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
===================================================

The issue i think is that fedora updates repository installed
kernel 3.15.3-200.fc20.x86_64 in its last update but the kmod-wl package
that came today via RPMFusion updates repo is for kernel
3.15.4-200.fc20.x86_64.

Any chance this can be resolved or do I need to wait till the kernel update
is pushed by Fedora updates repo?

For now, for my broadcom wireless lan card, i have used akmod-wl package to
autocompile the kmod and its working fine. But this package is hindering my
updates. Need guidance here.

Thanks in Advance.
