RHEL (or rather Red Hat Storage) took a pre-release of glusterfs-3.6 and included that in RHEL-6.6. This means that on updating, yum will find the newer RHEL packages, but there is no matching glusterfs-server. If you have glusterfs-server installed from the gluster.org repository, yum can not update glusterfs-server, and dependency errors are the result. (2) There is an other complication in solving this issue. The 3.6 release from the community provides libgfapi.so.7, whereas the RHEL packages provide libgfapi.so.0. Any applications (like qemu and samba-vfs-gluster) that link against the library, would need to be re-build when the community packages are used. The first problem is going to be solved by releasing glusterfs-3.6.1 in the following days. This makes the community version have a higher version than the packages in RHEL/CentOS, and yum would prefer these and it can resolve all dependencies, including glusterfs-server. The second problem is a little more complicated to solve. We have been discussing reverting the change that causes the version of the library to increase, and replace it with a more fine-grained symbol-versioning. A rebuild of the related packages would then not be needed, and the libgfapi.so library will get loaded without issue by the existing binaries in the RHEL/CentOS repositories/channels. We'll be updating the mailinglists about progress on these topics, and I think a blog post will be published too.
