Can you provide the output out the following commands: uname -a rpm -q dmraid rpm -q yum rpm -q kpartx rpm -q device-mapper-multipath I had this same problem. Doing a "yum clean all" fixed it. Harold, Can you also run the yum update after a "yum clean all"? I want to verify that it isn't a yum issue. Thanks, Chris Hello ! Same issue on RHEL5.2 64bit #> yum clean all didn't fixed it. Any other solutions for this problem ? (yum version is : yum-3.2.8-9.el5) regards yum clean all fixed it. It also fixed the same problem on another RHEL 5.3 system which had a LOT more missing dependencies. Harold I'm reassigning this to yum as it appears this is where the problem lies. This is the yum-metadata-parser bug which is about to go out. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 490516 *** On RHEL5 32 the yum clean all command worked for me. On 64bit edition definitely NOT ! So i removed the folder in /var/cache/yum to /var/cache/yum.old created a new folder yum. After starting yum updated again it worked. yum clean all doesn't cleaned all in my case. However it's now working again.. Appears that this bug still impacts X86_64 bit customers. When doing an update from RHEL 5.1 all the way to 5.3, the error messages posted by Harold Pritchett. On x86_64, the "work around", in fact resolves the issue. This issue may impact all x86_64 customers that update from 5.1 to 5.3 |
