Description of problem: The command yum install rubygem-rails does fail, because it seems that another package needed (rubygem) is missing in the repository. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 4.2.5 How reproducible: Install the package using yum. Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install -y rubygem-rails Actual results: Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package rubygem-rails.noarch 1:4.2.5-2.el7 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(actionmailer) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activerecord) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activeresource) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activesupport) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(actionpack) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(railties) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(bundler) >= 1.0 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Running transaction check ---> Package rubygem-bundler.noarch 0:1.7.8-3.el7 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(thor) >= 0.19.0 for package: rubygem-bundler-1.7.8-3.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(net-http-persistent) for package: rubygem-bundler-1.7.8-3.el7.noarch ---> Package rubygem-rails.noarch 1:4.2.5-2.el7 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(actionmailer) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activerecord) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activeresource) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activesupport) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(actionpack) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(railties) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Running transaction check ---> Package rubygem-net-http-persistent.noarch 0:2.8-5.el7 will be installed ---> Package rubygem-rails.noarch 1:4.2.5-2.el7 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(actionmailer) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activerecord) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activeresource) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(activesupport) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(actionpack) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch --> Processing Dependency: rubygem(railties) = 4.2.5 for package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch ---> Package rubygem-thor.noarch 0:0.19.1-1.el7 will be installed --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel7-centos7-x86_64) Requires: rubygem(activerecord) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel7-centos7-x86_64) Requires: rubygem(actionmailer) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel7-centos7-x86_64) Requires: rubygem(railties) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel7-centos7-x86_64) Requires: rubygem(actionpack) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel7-centos7-x86_64) Requires: rubygem(activeresource) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel7-centos7-x86_64) Requires: rubygem(activesupport) = 4.2.5 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
Please remove this package from epel7. It was never working.
This is still broken: Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel) Requires: rubygem(actionpack) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel) Requires: rubygem(actionmailer) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel) Requires: rubygem(activesupport) = 4.2.5 Available: 1:rubygem-activesupport-4.2.6-1.el7.noarch (epel) rubygem(activesupport) = 4.2.6 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel) Requires: rubygem(activerecord) = 4.2.5 Error: Package: 1:rubygem-rails-4.2.5-2.el7.noarch (epel) Requires: rubygem(activeresource) = 4.2.5
I have attempted to remove the package using the instructions here, specifically for epel http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/How_to_remove_a_package_at_end_of_life It seems like it only halfway worked. I'll give it a week or two to see if it was completely removed using the automated way.
Sorry, I am still working through the dependency tree for Rails. There were a large number of missing packages in the EPEL branches that still need to be built for Rails itself to be installable.
The same error is still there... Any news?
