This might be related to Bug #446135 but there aren't enough (or any) details in the bug report to be sure. It "smells" similar though. Also looks to be highly related to Bug 448851 but I'm using RHN Sat 4.2.1. Submitted RHN Satellite Support Request just now (1837298) |
Description of problem: After a bare metal, kickstart installation of RHEL5.2 Xen dom0, I can not successfully run 'yum update' because of (bogus) failed dependencies. The packages that are failing to update (and therefore bombing the entire process) are: net-snmp-utils net-snmp-perl cups ecryptfs-utils As a side note, but related, installing the 'tk' package has the same problem. I'm blaming this problem currently on YUM but it could be something RPM or RHN Satellite related. I have looked in our RHN Satellite Server at these packages and they all have a specified dependency on the *version* but not the *release*. It would seem (IMHO) that the yum/rpm/rhn components client side are inserting the '0' into the release field and it isn't matching up. Another related, but side, note: for packages that do not yet have updates that I want to install (the 'tk' example here), I can specify them in the kickstart file %packages section and they get installed just fine. And the last data point that I've collected: I have scheduled the errata update for 'cups' and 'net-snmp' in the Satellite Server and the troublesome packages all get installed. The outputs below were collected prior to those errata scheduled events in the Satellite Server. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-3.2.8-9.el5_2.1 yum as distributed with RHEL5.2 had same problem. I'm sure there are tons VARIOUS OUTPUTS: # yum list updates Loading "rhnplugin" plugin Loading "security" plugin Loading "downloadonly" plugin rhel-i386-server-5-wfu-de 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 rhel-i386-server-5-wfu-xe 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 rhel-i386-server-5-backup 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 rhel-i386-server-5 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 rhel-i386-server-suppleme 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 rhel-i386-server-vt-5 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 rhel-i386-server-hts-5 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 rhn-tools-rhel-i386-serve 100% |=========================| 1.2 kB 00:00 Skipping security plugin, no data Updated Packages cups.i386 1:1.2.4-11.18.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server cups-libs.i386 1:1.2.4-11.18.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server dhcpv6-client.i386 1.0.10-4.el5_2.2 rhel-i386-server freetype.i386 2.2.1-20.el5_2 rhel-i386-server gnutls.i386 1.4.1-3.el5_1 rhel-i386-server ipsec-tools.i386 0.6.5-9.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server kernel.i686 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5 rhel-i386-server kernel-xen.i686 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5 rhel-i386-server kernel-xen-devel.i686 2.6.18-92.1.1.el5 rhel-i386-server net-snmp.i386 1:5.3.1-24.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server net-snmp-libs.i386 1:5.3.1-24.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server net-snmp-perl.i386 1:5.3.1-24.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server net-snmp-utils.i386 1:5.3.1-24.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server perl.i386 4:5.8.8-10.el5_2.3 rhel-i386-server perl-suidperl.i386 4:5.8.8-10.el5_2.3 rhel-i386-server redhat-release-notes.i386 5Server-15 rhel-i386-server tzdata.noarch 2008b-3.el5 rhel-i386-server xen.i386 3.0.3-64.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server xen-libs.i386 3.0.3-64.el5_2.1 rhel-i386-server #
