Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

yum-3.4.3-132.el7.noarch

How reproducible:

Always, I think

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a machine with iptables-1.4.21-16.el7.x86_64
2. Have repos with iptables-1.4.21-17.el7.x86_64 (and iptables-services of same version)
3. yum install iptables-services

Actual results:

yum only suggests to install iptables-services, and fails in doing so

Expected results:

yum suggests to update iptables and install iptables-service, and succeeds

Additional info:

Not sure which repos were used to install the machine. I use these repos when trying to install iptables-services:

[rhel-7.latest]
name=RHEL_7_latest
baseurl=http://download.eng.tlv.redhat.com/pub/rhel/rel-eng/latest-RHEL-7/compose/Server/x86_64/os/

This is not a production issue, please use JIRA to report such issues. These are mainly customer facing issues.

Has anyone opened an issue in JIRA? I suspect I'm seeing the exact same issue on CentOS 7.4 which was just released.

'yum -y update iptables' before this is a workaround for this, but ugly.

I just tried this on a 7.3 with iptables-1.4.21-16.el7.x86_64 installed and it seems to work fine:

# yum install iptables-services
[...]
