Software :: Preventing Dependency Conflicts - CentOS 6
Aug 3, 2011
I've recently installed cacti on one of my servers and grimaced a bit when I had to install additional third-party yum repositories for CentOS 6. My question is, how does one go about preventing potential conflicts with certain dependencies overwriting key/critical dependencies relied upon from packages that might share them, i.e. apache? I understand yum priorities and have read the discussions regarding pros/cons from the threads involving one of the YUM maintainers. Since I need my servers to act as production-class equipment and, hence, be as reliable as they can, I'm always hesitant to allow yum to automate package upgrades when third-party repos are involved. How best to handle this?

I've been trying to upgrade my installation for some time now and just can't quite get it right. I would upgrade from the DVD but the installer hangs when it says "Looking for installation images on CD device /dev/sr0". However, that's not really my question. I've resorted to the upgrade instructions as found at [URL]. If I don't use the '--skip-broken' option it complains about the following:
abrt-gui-0.0.11-1.fc12.x86_64 from fedora
abrt-libs-1.0.6-1.fc12.x86_64 from updates
samba-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates
samba-client-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates
samba-common-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates
samba-winbind-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates
samba-winbind-clients-3.4.5-55.fc12.x86_64 from updates
If I use the skip broken option, it then complains about:
Transaction Check Error:
file /usr/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/cryptsetup.mo from install of cryptsetup-luks-1.1.0-0.4.fc12.x86_64 conflicts with file from package cryptsetup-luks-1.0.6-7.fc11.i586
file /usr/share/locale/sv/LC_MESSAGES/cryptsetup.mo from install of cryptsetup-luks-1.1.0-0.4.fc12.x86_64 conflicts with file from package cryptsetup-luks-1.0.6-7.fc11.i586

I can't seem to remedy this problem. There were other conflicts but I just removed those packages. When I attempt to remove 'cryptsetup-luks' it then tells me it's going to remove something like 200 others which did not sound like a good idea.

I have a virtualbox installation on top of CentOS, and I need fairly high security separation between host and guest traffic. The university network the box hangs off uses statically-allocated ip addresses, allocated to fixed MAC addresses (i.e. it eats any traffic with mismatched ip and MAC addresses).
Host OS: CentOS 5.3 64bit
VBox: 3.0.4
Guest OS: Fedora 11 64bit
Hardware: dual NIC, Intel server
Bridged networking, with separate NICs for host and guest
I'm aiming for high-security separation between host and guest traffic. To do this, I would like to to run all host traffic through one NIC, H, and all guest traffic through the other, G. The host and guest have separate, statically allocated, IP addresses, IPH and IPG. The network forces these to be mapped to specific MAC addresses, MACH (the address of NIC H) and MACG (the address of NIC G).
So it's not too hard to write host firewall rules to enforce this policy. The rules just have to state that traffic coming into H must have a destination compatible with IPH, and traffic going out must have IPH as source - and vv for G and IPG. There also don't seem to be any trouble telling the guest to only use NIC G. As a result, turning off NIC G (or equivalently, firewalling it off from host traffic) crashes the network, I have to reboot it to get networking working.
But I can't figure how to tell the host (i.e. CentOS) to _only_ use NIC H for anything else except the guest. Even though we don't see any IPH traffic coming into NIC G from outside, I don't seem to be able to stop the host from starting connections on NIC G. Does anyone know any way to do this - to tell the host that it can only use IPH as its IP address unless traffic is coming from a guest process, and that it can only use address MACH and NIC H?

I am thinking about installing rsyslog using yum, but I only want to try it out first and don't want to create conflicts and problems that will be hard to revert. When I ask yum on CentOS 5 about rsyslog, I get this (note much older version - it's too bad that even the latest STABLE rsyslog isn't in the repository):

After restoring from a hardware failure, I cannot get bridging to work again. I reinstalled the host version 5.5, and copied the .img file back onto the rebuilt machine. I also had the network scripts and iptables backed up. Through virt-manager I re-attached the virtual machine, and when I boot it, I get a MAC address conflict on the vm's eth0; "Device eth0 has a different MAC address than expected". The vm had a static ip address.
[root@trngvh ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1

Fresh instalaation of Centos 5.3 (32 bit machine). Got the Dag-Wier repos set up. Ran yum install videolan-client which found one missing dependency: libdvdread.so.3 is needed by vlc.0.9.9-2.el5.rf.i386. Looking in /usr/lib, I find libdvdread.so.4.1.3 installed, but no libdvdread.so.3. I created a symboloic link libdvdread.s0.3 -> libdvdread.so.4..1.3 and rand ldconfig. Tried to install videolan-client again with yum but got the same failed dependency. how to get vlc installed?

I am having dependency problems.
I am using all of the official centos5 repos except "plus".
I am using the stable repos of rpmforge and ATRPMS.
When I use su -c 'yum update'
I get the following dependency errors:
As far as I can tell, the errors are coming from one or both of the 3rd party repos.
I am using the yum plugin priorities:

Just tried updating 5.2 to 5.3; using both pup and yum, and both get the same error:
Error: Missing Dependency: libgpod.so.0 is needed by package rhythmbox
If I remove rhythmbox (I don't use it on this machine) the upgrade works, but I thought I'd post in case someone wanted to take a look at it.

Is there any way of getting the build logs of the CentOS packages? I'm dealing with a possible build problem in CentOS's Samba similar to [URL], so it would be very useful to have the build logs available to check for such dependency problems, etc.

I'm trying just a generic yum update to bring the machine up to date, I'm running into problems with two packages and their dependencies, kpartx and lvm2
I've removed any additional repositories, and performed a yum clean all
I think my problem comes down to device-mapper, it's asking for 1.02.32-1 to install lvm2 however if I run a yum list device-mapper it only shows 1.02.24-1.el5 as installed, and it is not marked for update. I've tried downloading the rpm directly, If i try to install the rpm with yum I'm told that there is nothing to do, if I try to install directly I run into problems with conflicts with the already installed package.
The kpartx seems dependent on device-mapper-multipath
I'm getting this problem on 2 machines.

i installed centos 5 in my pc. and i installed vlc 0.9.9.rpm. while installing it is asking some dependency files. then i install rpmforge.rpm. rpmforge clears all dependency files so then i am able to install vlc on my pc very successfully. now i have a another pc with centos 5. i dont have network connection on second pc.
so i want to copy these dependency files (installed by rpmforge while installing vlc) from first computer to sencond computer(without internet) by pen drive. and want to install these dependency files manually.because rpmforge is install dependency files form internet. is it possible to install dependency file manually.

Running CentOS 5.3
Recently installed - manually, not with yum, the rpm distribution of the latest MySql (5.1.34) as I needed the latest version, not the one that YUM lists. I am now trying to set up (for the first time) an email server on the same system, and I have been led to believe that postfix and dovecot are the way to go. However when I try to install dovecot I get this:
