[Spacewalk-list] Upgrade to 2.5 fails when upgrading jabberd

[Daryl Rose]

Jan-Albert,


When you say "epel stable", I'm assuming that you mean the regular epel repository, http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/$basearch


I only see jabberd 2.4.0-4 in this repository.

I commented out jabberd testing as you suggest, but this did not make any difference.  So when I review the contents of the repository, I could only find 2.4.0-4.

Thank you.

Daryl

Disable EPEL testing and only use EPEL stable and retry (this has jabberd-2.4.0-2 instead of 2.4.0-4)

There might be a bug in the newer EPEL-testing package

It was advised that I upgrade SW to 2.5 (I'm currently on 2.3).


I'm following the upgrade documentation, and one of the steps is to upgrade via yum.

  *   yum upgrade

I get to jabbered-2.4.0 and it fails with dependency issues.  Its looking for two PERL modules, Net::Jabber and Net::Jabber::XDB


Error: Package: jabberd-2.4.0-4.el6.x86_64 (epel)

           Requires: perl(Net::Jabber) >= 1.29

Error: Package: jabberd-2.4.0-4.el6.x86_64 (epel)

           Requires: perl(Net::Jabber::XDB)

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest


Both module are installed and work just fine, so I know this is error is a red herring.


My question is, if I use the --skip-broken, or rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest, will that cause problems in the future, or cause problems with the upgrade?


Thank you


Daryl
