Yep, presumably those are from EPEL. However, since the libsmbios package is now available through Red Hat official repositories, the EPEL packages should be retired according to the EPEL policy. Packages in EPEL should not conflict or override official Red Hat packages. Which means that the Dell packages should be made to function with the Red Hat packages. It seems that the Red Hat libsmbios package is missing some functionality, and that is the reasoning behind the new libsmbiosc++ package from Dell. I've confirmed that it works with the (soon-to-be-retired) EPEL packages, but it doesn't work with the new Red Hat libsmbios + Dell libsmbiosc++ combo. Hopefully it's an easy fix for Dell :) Regards, -- Trond Hasle Amundsen <t.h.amund...@usit.uio.no> _______________________________________________ Linux-PowerEdge mailing list Linux-PowerEdge@dell.com https://lists.us.dell.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-poweredge
