rpm error on kernel upgrade

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

 



Hi all,

I'm trying to upgrade the stock kernel on a RH8 box (2.4.18-14) to the
latest given in the errata lists (2.4.20-20.8.i686) but I'm getting a
strange error:

[root@cluster01 root]# rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.20-20.8.i686.rpm
warning: kernel-2.4.20-20.8.i686.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID
db42a60e
error: Failed dependencies:
        oprofile < 0.4 conflicts with kernel-2.4.20-20.8

I also get this error when I try and upgrade to 2.4.20-13.8.i686. I find
this strange becuase I have upgraded a different RH8 box to the 20-13 kernel
with no worries. Am I missing something, or just being thick?

I've looked in the archives and I've found a reference to oprofile wrt to
2.6 test kernel. Does this mean that I need to get the latest oprofile rpm
from somewhere before I can upgrade the kernel? 

I'd also like to know how it got there when I don't think it is in the other
RH8 boxes.

TIA

Andy
