Error installing packages under Fedora

I have received the same message with the Add/Remove Applications option in fedora. This error happens no matter what I am installing. Is there a way to fix the problem?

I also used Fedora for a few days and did you try sypnatic? it is really awesome, it's a GUI tool:

Synaptic GUI Frontend

apt users have an optional GUI frontend called Synaptic.

Fedora Core 1

* http://download.fedora.us/fedora/fed...5-1.1.i386.rpm

Red Hat Linux 9

* http://download.fedora.us/fedora/red....rh90.i386.rpm

Red Hat Linux 8.0

* http://download.fedora.us/fedora/red....rh80.i386.rpm

and also i never experienced the error and instead of

rpm <stuff>

i'd recommend using sypnatic or rpmi

yum from the command line is the best way to go and can be used as a replacement for both apt and up2date. You will have to edit the /etc/yum.conf file and add extra sites (repositorys) to the listing. Also you should replace the existing fedora sites with faster mirrors. If you are using it on a network behind a proxy, then the proxy settings need to be specified beforehand.... I can give further instructions if needed, or I could email my yum.conf file. Just say the word.

Lets just say that all packages I have tried to install using yum have installed without a problem.
