Hi everybody,

I'm having difficulties updating dhclient as outlined below by using either
yum or rpm. I'm running CentOS on a virtual guest provided by a provider.

This is an outline of what I tried:

yum update:

What's wrong? I did some other package updates using yum earlier and with
the exception of this package it worked.

The filesystem is not full. There's plenty of space. Everything is mounted
under /

Any ideas?
