YUM do I really have to run yum twice ?

[Hans Christian Studt]

Hi,

I seems like I always have to run yum twice in order to have packages downloaded and installed. The first run will only download the headers.
When I run the second time it will download the missing packages and install them.

Is this how it is supposed to work ?
