Hi,

I have updated from the previous to the current 5.x SL version following
this procedure

https://www.scientificlinux.org/documentation/howto/upgrade.5x
-> "For those a little more cautious"

While all seems to be ok (rebooted, too), now using

uname -a
Linux fep 2.6.18-194.11.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Aug 10 16:39:28 EDT 2010
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I came across this issue when trying to remove old kernels:

[r...@fep modules]# rpm -qa | grep kernel | sort
kernel-2.6.18-164.15.1.el5.x86_64
kernel-2.6.18-194.11.1.el5.x86_64
kernel-devel-2.6.18-164.15.1.el5.x86_64
kernel-devel-2.6.18-194.11.1.el5.x86_64
kernel-headers-2.6.18-194.11.1.el5.x86_64
kernel-module-fuse-2.6.18-92.1.6.el5-2.6.3-1.sl5.x86_64

-> still 2.6.18-92 around?

[r...@fep modules]# rpm -e
kernel-module-fuse-2.6.18-92.1.6.el5-2.6.3-1.sl5.x86_64
error: Failed dependencies:
        kernel-module-fuse >= 5:2.6.3-1.SL is needed by (installed)
fuse-2.6.3-1.SL.x86_64

[r...@fep modules]# rpm -qa | grep fuse
libconfuse-devel-2.5-4.x86_64
fuse-libs-2.6.3-1.SL.x86_64
libconfuse-2.5-4.x86_64
fuse-2.6.3-1.SL.x86_64
fuse-smb-0.8.7-1.SL.x86_64
fuse-sshfs-2.2-1.SL.x86_64
kernel-module-fuse-2.6.18-92.1.6.el5-2.6.3-1.sl5.x86_64

But the current fuse version is 2.7.4-8.el5.

While I fixed this manually, I wonder how many other outdated packages
might be there. Is there a possibility to check that?

Thanks,
Markus
