error software update on a new installation
 

I am an Ubuntu user and now testing Fedora.
I have 360+ updates of software after installation.
But I get the following error.

could not add package update for fedora-release-rawhide-15-3(noarch)updates: fedora-release-rawhide-15-3.noarch

To my knowledge I run Fedora 15 Lovelock

What is going wrong?

1. What method or source did you use for installing Fedora 15?

>From the command line run "rpm -q fedora-release". The returned value
should be "fedora-release-15-3.noarch".
If the returned value does not match you can download officially
released version from http://fedoraproject.org/get-fedora

You should not be adding rawhide updates to your installed software. Go
to the rawhide repos in /etc/yum.repos.d and disable them [enable=0]
rawhide provides software which is potentially unstable.

The original version of fedora-release for F15 (fedora-release-15-1.noarch)
mistakenly depended on fedora-release-rawhide, so all F15 installs included
fedora-release-rawhide-15-1.noarch as well (even though rawhide is disabled by
default in the config file). See
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=708553 .

The https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/fedora-release-15-3 update gets rid
of the dependency and also obsoletes fedora-release-rawhide to uninstall it.
This works properly when using command-line yum to update. Unfortunately, it
exposed a bug in PackageKit (see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=716752 ) which has still not been
fixed, in that it causes the OP's error. I added this to Common Bugs (
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Common_F15_bugs#fedora-release-15-3_update ).
