Hi,
My brain is hurting a bit over this one. How does one delete ypbind cleanly
from a RHEL6 box? It has a dep of yp-tools. No problem...I add both to the
uninstall list in hiera;
packages_oel6_absent:
<snip>
- ypbind
- yp-tools
SNIP from manifest;
$packagesabsent = hiera("${packages_key}_absent",'nil')
if $packagesabsent != 'nil' {
package { $packagesabsent:
ensure => absent,
}
Works a treat for all other packages removing cleanly, apart from these two.
Here's the error when I add both programs to the delete list;
err: /Stage[main]/Axx_packages/Package[yp-tools]/ensure: change from
2.9-12.el6 to absent failed: Execution of '/bin/rpm -e
yp-tools-2.9-12.el6.x86_64' returned 1: error: Failed dependencies:
yp-tools is needed by (installed) ypbind-3:1.20.4-29.el6.x86_64
err: /Stage[main]/Axx_packages/Package[ypbind]/ensure: change from
1.20.4-29.el6 to absent failed: Execution of '/bin/rpm -e
ypbind-1.20.4-29.el6.x86_64' returned 1: error: Failed dependencies:
ypbind is needed by (installed) yp-tools-2.9-12.el6.x86_64
If I only state one of the packages for removal....I only get one of the
errors.
I read some historical threads from a few years back reporting the same
issue, but hoping it's fixed by now.
Other than doing a bit of a nasty exec rpm -e / onlyif rpm -q ypbind
blah....what's a chap to do?
Regs,
Stephen
