Description

libmthca-devel was obsoleted by libmthca-static, but for some reason, the Obsoletes: line was dropped from the spec. Install -static instead and all should be fine. Not sure if this is something worth fixing in an updated package, but it would be nothing more than a one-line spec file addition. No, it's not that we didn't make a -devel package, it's that what used to be called mthca-devel by upstream is called mthca-static in rhel (the -static name is more accurate since the -devel package only contained the static library and nothing else, there is no real -devel for mthca, to write code for the mthca driver, you have to have libibverbs-devel installed and write a libibverbs application, it's libibverbs that uses libmthca, not the user application directly). Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 shipped it's last minor release, 5.11, on September 14th, 2014. On March 31st, 2017 RHEL 5 exited Production Phase 3 and entered Extended Life Phase. For RHEL releases in the Extended Life Phase, Red Hat will provide limited ongoing technical support. No bug fixes, security fixes, hardware enablement or root-cause analysis will be available during this phase, and support will be provided on existing installations only. If the customer purchases the Extended Life-cycle Support (ELS), certain critical-impact security fixes and selected urgent priority bug fixes for the last minor release will be provided. For more details please consult the Red Hat Enterprise Linux Life Cycle Page: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata This BZ does not appear to meet ELS criteria so is being closed WONTFIX. If this BZ is critical for your environment and you have an Extended Life-cycle Support Add-on entitlement, please open a case in the Red Hat Customer Portal, https://access.redhat.com ,provide a thorough business justification and ask that the BZ be re-opened for consideration of an errata. Please note, only certain critical-impact security fixes and selected urgent priority bug fixes for the last minor release can be considered. |
