DNF Failure?

Postby icebear » Sep 1st, '18, 14:22

Hi Im new to Mageia i've been using fedora for the last couple months i switched to Mageia beacause one friend told me that it was a fork of Mandrake and my nostalgia and curiosity kicked in. the problem is that i want to install cinnamon the problem is that it tells me this:

Running transaction check
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

i tried yum and software management
Kernel: 4.14.65-desktop-1.mga6

Hi there, in the subject you mention dnf failure, but you tried with yum ?

Also, both for yum and software management you get the same Segmentation fault ? When does that happen, when the installation has been triggered or already when you run yum / software management?
And did you only select cinnamon as package, and what was the exact yum command you used?

Please also show the output of
Code: Select all
uname -a
urpmq --list-media active --list-url
Cauldron is not for the faint of heart!
