Description of problem: We have a Satellite Proxy Server that we use and I just logged into update the server to RHEL 6.5 with a standard yum update. One of the packages that was to be updated was rhnlib. The current version is rhnlib-2.5.22-12.el6.noarch and there appears to be an update to 2.5.22-15.el6. However, a dependency of having a newer version of rhncfg is causing a conflict. See below in the actual results for the exact conversation. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): rhnlib-2.5.22-12.el6.noarch How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Simply running a yum update rhnlib. 2. 3. Actual results: [root@rhnproxy1 ~]# yum -y update rhnlib Loaded plugins: product-id, rhnplugin, security, subscription-manager This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register. This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or RHN Satellite. Setting up Update Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package rhnlib.noarch 0:2.5.22-12.el6 will be updated ---> Package rhnlib.noarch 0:2.5.22-15.el6 will be an update --> Processing Conflict: rhnlib-2.5.22-15.el6.noarch conflicts rhncfg < 5.10.27-13 --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: rhnlib conflicts with rhncfg-5.9.27-20.el6sat.noarch You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest Expected results: Clean update. Additional info:
This is not a but. Apparently rhncfg was moved to a different RHN channel. Once I added that channel everything worked as expected. Please close this one out as it is not a bug.
Yes, new rhnlib and rhncfg packages were released to coincide with each other. rhnlib is released in the main RHEL channels. rhncfg-* packages are released in the RHN Tools child channel. Closing out.
