[ovirt-users] failing update ovirt-engine on centos 7

[Pavel Gashev]

I had an issue with updating to 3.6.6. There were errors during engine-setup:

[ ERROR ] Yum Non-fatal POSTUN scriptlet failure in rpm package ovirt-vmconsole-1.0.0-1.el7.centos.noarch

[ ERROR ] Yum Transaction close failed: Traceback (most recent call last):   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/otopi/miniyum.py", line 778, in endTransaction     self.processTransaction()   File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/otopi/miniyum.py", line 1064, in processTransaction     _('One or more elements within Yum transaction failed') RuntimeError: One or more elements within Yum transaction failed
 
ovirt-vmconsole has the following uninstall script:
postuninstall scriptlet (using /bin/sh): 
if [ "$1" -ge "1" ]; then
        semodule -i "/usr/share/selinux/packages/ovirt-vmconsole/ovirt_vmconsole.pp"
fi

In other words you can't update if you have SELINUX disabled.

The workaround is the following:
ln -fs /bin/true /usr/sbin/semodule
