Description Bryan Yount 2013-10-30 01:02:25 UTC
Description of problem:
If a customer runs a normal "yum update" on the RHEL system running RHEV-M 3.2.2 or 3.2.3, with redhat-support-plugin-rhev-3.2.0-11 installed, they will receive a dependency error due to the latest version of the support plugin available on RHN.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rhevm-3.2.3-0.42
redhat-support-plugin-rhev-3.2.0-11

How reproducible:
Very

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install RHEV 3.2.2 or 3.2.3 with redhat-support-plugin-rhev < 3.2.1-2
2. yum update

Actual results:

-----------terminal snippet-----------
Error: Package: redhat-support-plugin-rhev-3.2.1-2.el6ev.noarch (rhel-x86_64-server-6-rhevm-3.2)
           Requires: rhevm >= 3.2.4
           Installed: rhevm-3.2.3-0.42.el6ev.noarch (@rhel-x86_64-server-6-rhevm-3.2)
               rhevm = 3.2.3-0.42.el6ev
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
-----------terminal snippet-----------

Expected results:
The "yum update" should complete successfully.

Additional info:
Most likely the support plugin should be added to the yum-versionlock list or the dependency requirements are too strict. Customers may want to run "yum update" on their systems without being forced to run a rhevm-upgrade.

This is a duplicate of bz101724.  We have agreed the best solution is to create a document stating the user must run rhevm-upgrade to upgrade both rhevm and the plugin.  After running rhevm-upgrade, yum update will behave normally.  This bug exists because rhevm is version locked while the plugin is not and version 3.2.1 of the plugin requires a specific version of rhevm. Lee Yarwood has agreed to create the documentation.

The fix is addressed in the errata here[1].  Closing this bug as fixed.
