Hello,

Today I checked again the repo that I am using and the package
lvm2-libs-2.02.143-12.el6.x86_64.rpm had been added in updates/security

The update works OK now.

Can I have you run:

yum clean expire-cache

and try again?


Sure but it does'nt help (nor does "yum clean all").

I forgot to mention that this is SL6.5 x86_64

Thanks

JM

PS: This is not a show stopper for performing the security updates
(kernel, etc.) as the --skip-broken works. I have to leave shortly
and will continue next week.

Yum update fails with conflict between device-mapper-event and lvm2-libs

2018-01-05 Thread Jean-Michel Barbet

Hello all,

Trying to update to recent kernel, in the list of updated package
there are 4 device-mapper updated packages and it looks like that
the new device-mapper-event.x86_64 0:1.02.117-12.el6 conflicts with
the installed lvm2-libs-2.02.100-8.el6.x86_64 :

This is not a new story but I am wondering if someting has been

Thank you.

Re: What's the best way to learn RPM packaging?

Hi,

I'm finding myself in the situation where it would be nice to be able to
package our apps or backport newer versions of some apps to work with
modules on SL6.

I've found lots of things on the web that are either too single minded
or incomprehensible.

If you remember how you learned to create RPMs, I'd appreciate some
advice on how to get going.  Good books, tutorials or websites.  The
reference documentation is NOT a good place to start, necessary, but not
a good cover to cover read, at least not yet.


Hi Joe,

I do not know if the following falls in the no good category but I
used it a lot to learn how to build my own packages :

Re: What happened to adobe repository ?

yum doesn't need to.
It will access to this url
http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/i386/repodata/repomd.xml
and access directly to the install and update RPM files given in the
others urls (primary.xml.gz for example here).


Thank you Matthieu but it looks like only flash-plugin is there.
I was looking for Acrobat Reader (AdobeReader_enu). It used to be
there...

Adobe discontinued the Adobe Reader 9 for Linux in June 2013 and has not
fixed and will not fix any further security issues in it. Therefore it
makes totally sense to remove it from their repo.


Thank you Urs,

OK, that's clear. What are the alternatives on the SL worksation ?

What happened to adobe repository ?

2014-01-14 Thread Jean-Michel Barbet

Hello,

In SL we can install the package adobe-release which installs the
repository definition /etc/yum.repos.d/adobe-linux-i386.repo but it
looks like this repository is no longer accessible. When I try to
open http://linuxdownload.adobe.com/linux/i386/ with a browser, I get :

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /linux/i386/ on this server.

Any idea what is going on ?

Thank you
