Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 886178
configure yum-plugin-priorities
Last modified: 2013-02-21 15:30:10 EST
details of how todo this manually need to also be put into the docs +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #886177 +++ openstack-packstack needs to configure the openstack yum repository to have a higher priority then EPEL. If installed RHOS should have a higher priority.
In theory, following should work: $ yum-config-manager --setopt=rhel-server-ost-6-folsom-rpms.priority=1 --save but this fails on RHEL 6.4 with traceback: File "/usr/bin/yum-config-manager", line 154, in <module> writeRawConfigFile(fn, 'main', ybc.conf.yumvar, AttributeError: 'YumConf' object has no attribute 'conf' Next best option would be to use openstack-config which is a pretty much generic INI editor, and handles .repo files just fine: $ openstack-config --set /etc/yum.repos.d/redhat.repo rhel-server-ost-6-folsom-rpms priority 1 So in Guide, add in "1.2. Installing Utilities" after $ sudo subscription-manager list example box: Install YUM priorities plugin: $ sudo yum install yum-plugin-priorities Raise priority of the Red Hat OpenStack Folsom repository: $ openstack-config --set /etc/yum.repos.d/redhat.repo rhel-server-ost-6-folsom-rpms priority 1
