Re: Error updating package in engine

You can also use 'package-cleanup --cleandupes' to remove duplicate packages. Best Regards, Strahil NikolovOn Oct 18, 2019 10:15, Gianluca Cecchi <gianluca.cecchi@gmail.com> wrote:

Hey guys!
I got a wierd issue today doing 'yum upgrade' I'm hoping you can help me with. The transaction failed because of systemd packages. I can't update systemd packages because they're already the latest, but old versions are still around because of ovirt related dependencies:
# rpm -q systemd systemd-219-62.el7_6.9.x86_64 systemd-219-67.el7_7.1.x86_64 # rpm -e systemd-219-62.el7_6.9.x86_64 error: Failed dependencies: systemd = 219-62.el7_6.9 is needed by (installed) systemd- python-219-62.el7_6.9.x86_64 # rpm -e systemd-python-219-62.el7_6.9.x86_64 error: Failed dependencies: systemd-python is needed by (installed) ovirt-imageio-proxy- 1.5.1-0.el7.noarch
Is this something you are aware of or are am I a special little snowflake? :)

Possibly you have an incomplete transaction in the past that didn't clean the old systemd? If you run yum-complete-transaction what do you get as output of candidate removals? Gianluca

Good suggestion but it didn't want to remove the packages that needed to be removed, like systemd and yum, because they are protected... /K
