Last modified: 2014-06-13 05:17:54 EDT
Description of problem: when I tried to get requires for glibc I got strange error that I am trying to remove yum. This is a bit weird as I did get-requires operation and not remove.. Is it checking requires via yum remove or so? this is a bit silly, isn't it? ;-) pkcon get-requires glibc More than one package matches: 1. glibc-2.15-47.el7.x86_64 [installed:alpha2] 2. glibc-2.15-47.el7.i686 [alpha2] Please choose the correct package: 1 Getting requires [=========================] Waiting in queue [=========================] Starting [=========================] Getting information [=========================] Resolving dependencies [= ] (5%) echo $?
