The current ansible package ansible-5.4.0-3.el8.noarch.rpm has a requirement of ansible-core >= 2.12.2 with ansible-core < 2.13 but redhat has just released a new ansible-core ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64 which breaks a full yum update Steps to Reproduce: 1. on a RHEL8 system install ansible-5.4.0-3.el8.noarch and ansible-core-2.12.2-4.el8_6.x86_64 2. yum update Actual results: Depsolve Error occured: Problem: package ansible-5.4.0-3.el8.noarch requires (ansible-core >= 2.12.2 with ansible-core < 2.13), but none of the providers can be installed - cannot install both ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64 and ansible-core-2.12.2-4.el8_6.x86_64 - cannot install both ansible-core-2.13.3-1.el8.x86_64 and ansible-core-2.12.2-3.1.el8.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package ansible-core-2.12.2-4.el8_6.x86_64 - cannot install the best update candidate for package ansible-5.4.0-3.el8.noarch Expected results: updated packages get installed. Additional info:
This is an unfortunate side effect of the fact that the EPEL ansible maintainers don't have control over ansible-core in RHEL, and it's to time updates across repositories. I have tried to stick to upstream's version constraints, but that's apparently not working too well. I'm planning to remove the upper version constraints from ansible in EPEL 8 and 9 so we have a grace period to properly release and test new ansible major versions after RHEL rebases ansible-core. The lower version constraints (e.g. ansible 6.5.0 requires at least ansible-core 2.13.5) can stay in place.
