Yum update doesn't work - processing conflict

upapi_rockstor · May 14, 2018, 7:55am

Hi,
I have some problems using “yum update”. cron is telling me:
/etc/cron.daily/0yum-daily.cron:

Failed to check for updates with the following error message: 
Failed to build transaction: initscripts conflicts with rockstor-release-3-8.16.el7.x86_64
nut-2.7.2-3.el7.x86_64 requires libipmimonitoring.so.5()(64bit)
nut-2.7.2-3.el7.x86_64 requires libfreeipmi.so.13()(64bit)

And when I run “yum update” manually it ends with:

Error: Package: nut-2.7.2-3.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda/3)
           Requires: libfreeipmi.so.13()(64bit)

Please help me in solving this problem
Thank you in advance
Uli

Can confirm, I have the same messages.

I briefly investigated this problem and yes, we need to 1) build a new set of nut rpms with updated dependencies and 2) a new rockstor-release rpm that doesn’t conflict with the upstream update of initscripts. I apologize for the delay, but will try to fix it asap this week.

@suman

Linking to @m.tuan.p post re the nut rpm issue:

So looks like at least the nut side of things is under way.

suman · May 15, 2018, 2:54pm

Thanks @phillxnet. rockstor-release conflict is fixed now. nut-* conflict remains.

upapi_rockstor · May 17, 2018, 9:20am

Today cronjob executed with success.
Thank you very much for your help.

hello, i’ve just run the update from console, with

yum update --skip-broken

and went fine (162 updates). run again as

yum update

and it comes as No packages marked for update

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

While running Rockstor 3.9.0-28 right now

FYI

Centos BUG here also nethsever is affected (of cause)

SOLUTION:

Updated CentOS packages were pushed to to the EPEL repo from the devs, not to the CentOS repo.

Be sure EPEL ist installed.
Then update NUT: yum --enablerepo=epel update nut
Alternativly enable EPEL repo permanetly in/etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo and update afterwards.

Same problem here - running update from WebUI (small RSS-like icon in header):

Error: initscripts conflicts with rockstor-release-3-8.16.el7.x86_64
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Running fresh install of Rockstor version: 3.9.1-0, didn’t activate any of update channels yet - could that be the source of problems here? Or should I try the above solution?

edit: installed from the latest ISO image
