Issue #17989 has been updated by Phoenix Zeus. Status changed from Unreviewed to Closed Assignee set to Phoenix Zeus
As no one else had a chance to look at it, here is how I solved and found a work around. The issue was the rubygems rpm which is part of rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6 channel, that my servers were not subscribed to. Either enabling the channel, or installing that rpm would resolve it. ---------------------------------------- Bug #17989: Cannot install Puppet on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago) due to rubygem-json https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17989#change-78350 Author: Phoenix Zeus Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Phoenix Zeus Category: installation Target version: 3.1.0 Affected Puppet version: 3.0.1 Keywords: bug, puppet, rubygem-json, ruby Branch: <pre> $ cat /etc/*release Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago) Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago) $ sudo yum repolist Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin repo id repo name status mon_chkpt-rhel-x86_64-server-6 Monthly Checkpoint Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 6 for 64-bit x86_64) 8,541 puppetlabs-deps Puppet Labs Dependencies El 6 - x86_64 29 puppetlabs-products Puppet Labs Products El 6 - x86_64 142 repolist: 8,712 </pre> After installing ruby, ruby-libs, ruby-shadow and facter using yum when I try to install puppet into brand new system I run into following issues. <pre> $ sudo yum install puppet Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit, rhnplugin Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package puppet.noarch 0:3.0.1-1.el6 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: hiera >= 1.0.0 for package: puppet-3.0.1-1.el6.noarch --> Processing Dependency: ruby(selinux) for package: puppet-3.0.1-1.el6.noarch --> Processing Dependency: ruby-augeas for package: puppet-3.0.1-1.el6.noarch --> Running transaction check ---> Package hiera.noarch 0:1.1.1-1.el6 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: rubygem-json for package: hiera-1.1.1-1.el6.noarch ---> Package libselinux-ruby.x86_64 0:2.0.94-5.3.el6 will be installed ---> Package ruby-augeas.x86_64 0:0.4.1-1.el6 will be installed --> Running transaction check ---> Package rubygem-json.x86_64 0:1.4.6-2.el6 will be installed --> Processing Dependency: rubygems for package: rubygem-json-1.4.6-2.el6.x86_64 --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: rubygem-json-1.4.6-2.el6.x86_64 (puppetlabs-deps) Requires: rubygems You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
