Description Forrest Taylor 2008-08-13 21:31:19 UTC 
Description of problem:
On a cluster system that has RHEL 5.1, I tried to update to RHEL 5.2, however the `yum update` command did not complete with the following errors:

Transaction Check Error:  
file /etc/depmod.d/gfs2.conf from install of kmod-gfs2-1.92-1.1.el5_2.2 conflicts with file from package kmod-gfs2-xen-1.52-1.16.el5

file /etc/depmod.d/gfs2.conf from install of kmod-gfs2-1.92-1.1.el5_2.2 conflicts with file from package kmod-gfs2-1.52-1.16.el5

file /etc/depmod.d/gfs2.conf from install of kmod-gfs2-xen-1.92-1.1.el5_2.2 conflicts with file from package kmod-gfs2-xen-1.52-1.16.el5

file /etc/depmod.d/gfs2.conf from install of kmod-gfs2-xen-1.92-1.1.el5_2.2 conflicts with file from package kmod-gfs2-1.52-1.16.el5

I had to remove the stated packages and install the newer versions again.



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kmod-gfs2-1.52-1.16.el5 to kmod-gfs2-1.92-1.1.el5_2.2


How reproducible:
Every time.  I did the same update on nine machines and each reported these errors.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. yum update


Expected results:
I would have expected the rpm to have the ability to not cause a conflict with an older package nor with a different package.
