RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

yum-3.4.3-132.el7.noarch

How reproducible:

Always, I think

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a machine with iptables-1.4.21-16.el7.x86_64
2. Have repos with iptables-1.4.21-17.el7.x86_64 (and iptables-services of same version)
3. yum install iptables-services

Actual results:

yum only suggests to install iptables-services, and fails in doing so

Expected results:

yum suggests to update iptables and install iptables-service, and succeeds

Additional info:

Not sure which repos were used to install the machine. I use these repos when trying to install iptables-services:

[rhel-7.latest]
name=RHEL_7_latest

This is not a production issue, please use JIRA to report such issues. These are mainly customer facing issues.

Has anyone opened an issue in JIRA? I suspect I'm seeing the exact same issue on CentOS 7.4 which was just released.

'yum -y update iptables' before this is a workaround for this, but ugly.

I just tried this on a 7.3 with iptables-1.4.21-16.el7.x86_64 installed and it seems to work fine:

# yum install iptables-services
