Hi
I wonder if someone could help me out with a yum dependency problem please?
I am running Centos 5.5. I installed Boost 1.40 from the Black Op Software
repo. I now need to install python-devel, but when I do so I get:
=================================================================
$ sudo yum install python-devel
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* addons: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk
* base: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk
* extras: mirror.as29550.net
* updates: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk
943 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Setting up Install Process
Resolving Dependencies
--> Running transaction check
---> Package python-devel.i386 0:2.4.3-27.el5 set to be updated
--> Processing Dependency: python = 2.4.3-27.el5 for package: python-devel
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
python-devel-2.4.3-27.el5.i386 from base has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: python = 2.4.3-27.el5 is needed by package
python-devel-2.4.3-27.el5.i386 (base)
Error: Missing Dependency: python = 2.4.3-27.el5 is needed by package
python-devel-2.4.3-27.el5.i386 (base)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.
=================================================================
However, I do have python 2.4 installed:
=================================================================
$ sudo yum install python
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* addons: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk
* base: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk
* extras: mirror.as29550.net
* updates: anorien.csc.warwick.ac.uk
943 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Setting up Install Process
Package matching python-2.4.3-27.el5.i386 already installed. Checking for
update.
Nothing to do
=================================================================
Finally, this may be useful information:
=================================================================
[daldr...@localhost Zodiac]$ yum list python
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities
blackop 474/474
943 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
Installed Packages
python.i386 2.4.3-27.el5_5.3 installed
[daldr...@localhost Zodiac]$
=================================================================
So python-devel seems to want python 2.4.3-27.el5 but I have 2.4.3-27.el5_5.3
Any suggestions how I can fix this please?
David
