I got the exact same problem few updates of microcode_ctl away but the consequences where terribly different (system broken at fs level, low level package files zero'ed, had to reconstruct from manually downloaded packages). How lucky your are, your yum transaction was including very few changes otherwise it could have broken much more. Since then, I excluded it this package from my yum updates. I reported this issue to the list: Date: Wed, 25 Dec 2019 12:43:11 +0100 From: wwp <subscr...@free.fr> Subject: [CentOS] CEEA-2019:4161 CentOS 7 microcode_ctl-2.1-53.7.el7_7.x86_64 update vs Dell Precision 7530 > - How can I repair repomd.xml? > - How do I configure journalctl to store more boots? Sorry can't help there :-(. Regards, -- wwp https://useplaintext.email/
