I guess I don't need MPI as these systems mostly are the one or two in network Mostly so/ho/home and mostly are desktop class boxes -- no ipmi and the sort. I will remember that. I do install clustering (without any fencing device or manual fencing of course) and virtualization as frequently I have to give training / demo / POC / Gentle intro to HA, virtualization and the such. -- Regards, Rajagopal ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

There is a newer version of openmpi that obsoletes that rpm and yum can handle it, but anaconda can not handle that obsolete. Because of that, it breaks the installation. This issue should be taken care of on the 6.4 ISOs.

Hello Ashkab, Be so kind not to top post and trim your replies.

The distribution is build by upstream so packages within a release do not conflict with one another. An installation including every single packages should not be a problem. If the original poster is seeing dependency issues with the ISO install he should probably take a note of what package it is that is missing from that particular ISO so the CentOS team can look into it and correct the spin if needed.

Re: [CentOS] Missing dependency in C6 ISO
installing all packages is very bad idea. many of them may conflict in installation process or after it. ——— Ashkan R On Aug 11, 2012 8:41 PM, "Rajagopal Swaminathan" wrote: > Greetings, > > I had downloaded c6 64 bits ISO, selected all packages to be installed. > > One dependency warning relating to Emacs appeared.
