Hey Rob, More details: you *could* do:
sudo rpm --erase --no-deps hpklinux I'm not completely sure how CentOS will behave when you next do a "yum upgrade" and there is also a Rivendell upgrade. I believe yum will simply re- install the hpklinux package, and you'll have to remove it again. Or the alsa- firmware package will conflict with the upgrade and you'll have to do something like "yum upgrade --skip-broken" to get it to install. Either way, it will probably require on-going attention over the life of the system... Hope this helps! ~David Klann On Mon, 2019-12-09 at 15:54 -0500, Rob Landry wrote: > OK, so I've got RD 2.19.3 running via the standard CentOS 7 install on a > machine I am maintaining as a backup. > > The M-Audio sound card it's been running appears to have become faulty; it > no longer generates any output. > > So, I want to replace it with an Echo MIA Midi card I've had on the shelf, > but that card requires the alsa-firmware package, which CentOS won't let > me install, claiming that it conflicts with hpklinux. > > Now, I don't need hpklinux because this machine doesn't have an > AudioScience card, but if I try to remove it, it threatens to remove > Rivendell too. > > Does anyone know of an easier fix than recompiling Rivendell from source? > > > Rob > > -- > Сквозь грозы сияло нам солнце свободы > И Linus великий нам путь озарил; > Нас вырастил Stallman на верность народу, > На труд и на подвиги нас вдохновил. > _______________________________________________ > Rivendell-dev mailing list > Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org > http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev _______________________________________________ Rivendell-dev mailing list Rivendell-dev@lists.rivendellaudio.org http://caspian.paravelsystems.com/mailman/listinfo/rivendell-dev
