Please ignore this, some ignorant cretin here excluded sudo from being
updated. Never in my life will I understand anyone's reason for
excluded THAT particular package.

Well, after three days of beating my head against my desk, I'm waving
the white flag. I've got a CentOS 6.4 box (yeah, I know) that I blew
away the OpenLDAP client and installed the freeipa-client as we're
transitioning off this terrible OpenLDAP implementation here.
Everything installed fine, and while I'm still tweaking the ansible
playbook for completely flushing PAM and OpenLDAP stuff off the box
(we have more than 100 other C6 boxes to migrate), everything works
fine with logging in using our IPA credentials.
The only thing that /doesn't/ work is sudo. While debugging it, it was
suggested (on the FreeIPA list) to update sudo. I've got a C6.4 box
that I fully updated and sudo works fine on it. Unfortunately, I can't
update this one fully, so I'm trying to update sudo only. The current
version on this box is 1.8.6-7.el6.x86_64.
Here's the head scratcher. I cannot, in any fashion get yum to update
sudo, it says no packages are marked for update. I tried simply
downloading the RPM and installing and I get this:
[root@secure nnsops]# yum localinstall sudo-1.8.6p3-29.el6_9.x86_64.rpm
Loaded plugins: changelog, fastestmirror
Setting up Local Package Process
Examining sudo-1.8.6p3-29.el6_9.x86_64.rpm: sudo-1.8.6p3-29.el6_9.x86_64
Nothing to do
A couple of people on the IPA list suggested explictly using the 6.9
repo URL. Nothing. So, I ran a yum update to see what packages would
update and sudo isn't one of them. I've rebuilt the RPM database with
no change in result. I'm completely at a loss here, and I've been
using RPM and Yum for two decades.
Any other ideas?
