Interrupted yum 7.3->7.4 upgrade - one glitch remains: grub2-2.02-0.64.el7.centos.x86_64

[technojoecoolusa]

My "yum upgrade" from 7.3 -> 7.4 was interrupted. I cleaned up the transaction and was able to fix all but one of the packages.

grub2-2.02-0.64.el7.centos.x86_64

When I run "yum check" I get:

Code: Select all

1:grub2-2.02-0.64.el7.centos.x86_64 is obsoleted by 1:grub2-2.02-0.64.el7.centos.x86_64
Error: check ['all']

I've tried "yum erase grub2" followed by "yum installed grub2", which says that it removed and reinstalled the package, but it doesn't clear the error.
I've also tried "yum clean all" but I still set the same error from "yum check."
I've also tried "package-cleanup --cleandupes" which returns "No duplicates to remove."
"rpm -Va --nofiles" returns no errors.

Does anyone have more precise information on what this error means and how to fix it?

What's the output of rpm -qa grub\* ?

P.S. The only thing I can think of is if maybe one package, like grub2, got split out in to separate packages, like grub2 + grub2-common, and I should remove and reinstall all of the grub2* packages.

I think it may be a bug as the package listed as conflicting is the same one it conflicts with.

Confirmed: it looks like a bug. I get the same thing here on a system that otherwise is fine.
