Hi,
At present I'm setting up several CentOS (4 and 4.4) machines, and in
the process of installing the several updates that are automatically
mentioned by up2date as being available, I'm running into a package
conflict.
More particular, when trying to install several of the C compiler
related packages (like gcc, cpp, etc.) I get the error message:
"Test install failed because of package conflicts:
The following packages were added to your selection to satisfy
dependencies:
(name) libtool (version) 1.5.6 (release) 4.EL4.c4.4
package libtool-1.5.6-4.EL4.1.c4.4 is already installed"
Now.... this seems to be somewhat of what we call over here a
"chicken-and-egg-problem", IOW, in order to resolve it libtool should
be added, yet when adding it, libtool is already installed and causes
the conflict; so which to solve first :P
Can anyone let me know how I can manually solve this problem (note
that libtool was not offered as a selectable package, but rather is
enforced when trying to install e.g. gcc)?
Tnx in advance, and cheers,
Olafo
