Using Fedora core 5 and kde-3.5.3.   I have tried several times to run yum 
update and it runs for over an hour, filling many screens and always stops 
with the same error.

But libmp4ff.so.0 is installed.  It is a link to libmp4ff.so.0.0.0, which is 
installed.

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      17 Jun  8 12:09 libmp4ff.so -> libmp4ff.so.0.0.0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      17 Jun  8 12:07 libmp4ff.so.0 -> libmp4ff.so.0.0.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root   38448 Mar 17 18:22 libmp4ff.so.0.0.0

What can I do to get past this and update my system?
