Thanks for the quick reply, I’ll stay with the old version for now.
The host server will move to CentOS 6 in the not too distant future
anyway, it’s just not something I can do right away.
So I just solved the libcgroup dependency issue by adding libcgroup into
the repository.
Now you can remove ploop packages and update vzctl. To do it in one
transaction, you can use yum-shell:
# yum shell
> update vzctl
> remove ploop\*
> run

Hi,
I tried to run yum update on a CentOS 5.8 OpenVZ host server today
and something strange happened. Yum tries to update vzctl-core to
version 4.0-1, which seems to require an updated plop-lib package,
but the updated plop-lib package from the yum repository requires
a kernel >= 2.6.32 (CentOS 5 runs on 2.6.18). As a result, the
entire update fails. It looks like there are the wrong package
versions in the yum repository for RHEL/CentOS 5 – or is there
something else going on?
There are two problems here:
1 ploop
Since you have RHEL5-based kernel that do not require ploop, you can
remove ploop when installing vzctl-4.0. I have made vzctl not
requiring ploop by dynamically loading it when it's available. Note
that vzctl is not requiring ploop anymore, it just conflicts with the
old version of it.
2 libcgroup
Currently I don't have a solution rather than compiling libcgroup from
source. I will take a closer look in the coming days and find a fix.
In the meantime,
- please stay with vzctl-3.3 and
- maybe it's a good time for switching to RHEL6 kernel which has a lot
of nice features such as VSwap.
Best regards,
Holger

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
