RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

Multiple packages exist that are not compatible with each other. This is usually due to mixing packages from different software sources.

ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve:
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-279.22.1.el6.i686 is needed by kernel-module-openafs-2.6.32-279.22.1.el6-1:1.4.14-3.cern.i686


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Scientific Linus 6.4

How reproducible:
During update

May I ask what exactly would you like yum to do? The output you sent is completely correct, yum is reporting the faulty state of your packages. Nothing we can do about it, as it is not a bug in yum. I'm closing this bug.

A solution for your problem is to uninstall the kernel-module-openafs package from the cern repository - yum will stop complaining about the package state.

Thank You! 
I removed the kernel-module-openafs package and the problem disappered.

I get a similar error while trying to install Team Viewer on my Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation release 6.2

What do I do? Where is CERN repository? Will removing kernel-module-openafs package cause any issues to my existing Red Hat Linux installation or any other applications?
