Yum Update Error ..

Post by sunand » 2018/03/21 08:32:20

Hi ,

I am a newbie in this forum , I have been trying to update the yum repository , but i am getting the below error . Please help me .

Error: Multilib version problems found. This often means that the root
cause is something else and multilib version checking is just
pointing out that there is a problem. Eg.:

1. You have an upgrade for libdrm which is missing some
dependency that another package requires. Yum is trying to
solve this by installing an older version of libdrm of the
different architecture. If you exclude the bad architecture
yum will tell you what the root cause is (which package
requires what). You can try redoing the upgrade with
--exclude libdrm.otherarch ... this should give you an error
message showing the root cause of the problem.

2. You have multiple architectures of libdrm installed, but
yum can only see an upgrade for one of those arcitectures.
If you don't want/need both architectures anymore then you
can remove the one with the missing update and everything
will work.

3. You have duplicate versions of libdrm installed already.
You can use "yum check" to get yum show these errors.

...you can also use --setopt=protected_multilib=false to remove
this checking, however this is almost never the correct thing to
do as something else is very likely to go wrong (often causing
much more problems).

Protected multilib versions: libdrm-2.4.65-2.el6.x86_64 != libdrm-2.4.45-2.el6.i686
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

You seem to have packages for CentOS 7 installed on your CentOS 6 system. This is not a good idea. Please see which such packages you have installed with rpm -qa | grep el7

In addition to the el7 packages on an el6 system, you also have loads of duplicate packages installed so you might want to read and review https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Cleaning ... tePackages though, since that page is a work in progress, you might want to treat it with caution. Backup first.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
