[CentOS] Dependency failures when updating

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



I am trying to update a centos box with an unsupported kernel (for XFS support):

[root@snowybunting /]# uname -a
Linux snowybunting.homelinux.net 2.6.9-34.106.unsupportedsmp #1 SMP Sat Mar 18 16:22:41 CST 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

To update I did:

yum update python-sqlite
yum clean all
yum update yum
yum clean all
yum update

..and I get the following

91 packages excluded due to repository protection

<bunch of stuff deleted>

--> Running transaction check
--> Processing Dependency: kernel-ib for package: libibverbs
--> Processing Dependency: kernel-ib for package: libsdp
--> Processing Dependency: kernel-ib for package: dapl
--> Processing Dependency: kernel-ib for package: libmthca
--> Processing Dependency: kernel-ib for package: librdmacm
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-ib is needed by package libibverbs
> Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-ib is needed by package libsdp
> Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-ib is needed by package dapl
> Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-ib is needed by package libmthca
> Error: Missing Dependency: kernel-ib is needed by package librdmacm

I unprotected the repositories in /etc/yum.repo.d, then reran:

yum update

...and I get the same missing dependencies errors. I don't know if I have too many things going on at once with the unsupported kernel and updating the whole base, but as of now I'm kind of stuck. Any thoughts?
