Fix yum-complete-transaction error




  1. Ok. I tried to execute sudo yum update command today and I was greeted with this line :

    There are unfinished transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction first to finish them.

  2. Somehow instinctively I just typed in sudo yum yum-complete-transaction and hit the enter key. Hoping that it will work out but at the end... it did not.

  3. It was not the right command parameter nor it is the right way to do so.

  4. The solution is to do these :

    sudo yum clean all

    sudo /usr/sbin/yum-complete-transaction

  5. After that, execute sudo yum update and everything will be fine and dandy.
