Description unicapitals 2012-04-19 18:52:14 UTC
I have CentOS6 Linux 2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.x86_64
trying to install fail2ban using 
yum install fail2ban

**I have the following error**
Loaded plugins: priorities
Setting up Install Process
Resolving Dependencies
--> Running transaction check
---> Package fail2ban.noarch 0:0.8.4-29.el5 will be installed

**Error: Package: python-inotify-0.9.1-1.el5.noarch (epel)
           Requires: python(abi) = 2.4
           Installed: python-2.6.6-29.el6.x86_64 (@anaconda-CentOS-201112102333.x86_64/6.2)**
               python(abi) = 2.6
           Available: python26-2.6.5-6.el5.x86_64 (epel)
               python(abi) = 2.6

Seems a missing file or not updated configuration in fail2ban.noarch 0:0.8.4-29.el5 as it still wants python(abi) = 2.4 but CentOS6 already has python(abi) = 2.6.
**Hopefully will be fixed asap...please, inform if possible**

Thank you and regards,
Serge

You might want to configure your system to use EPEL 6, not EPEL 5.
