Red Hat Enterprise 5.7 x86_64 kernel 2.6.18-274.3.1.el5 yum-rhn-plugin.noarch-0.5.4-22.el5_7.2
Running a cobbler-built local repository mirror for cobbler/PXE/Kickstarting systems. There are third party repos and a custom repo of locally required packages. After an update that changed me from yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.4-22.el5 to yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.4-22.el5_7.2, I started getting failure on any yum command with the message "Repository rhel-x86_64-server-5 is listed more than once in the configuration". I found the following workarounds: * disable yum-rhn-plugin by using "--disableplugin=rhnplugin" on the command line * downgrade to yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.4-22.el5 (yum-rhn-plugin-0.5.4-22.el5_7.1 has the same issue) and put "exclude=yum-rhn-plugin" in /etc/yum.conf It looks like an old bug crawled back into yum-rhn-plugin Ref: <https://access.redhat.com/kb/docs/DOC-15495> ----------------------------------------------------- Secondary question: Is there a way I can lock out the offending versions of yum-rhn-plugin from my local mirror until RH fixes the problem ? I am trying removing the RPMs from the repo_mirror, put "exclude=yum-rhn-plugin" in /etc/yum.conf and trying a "cobbler reposync" I will report back my results. “Sometimes I think the surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe is that none of it has tried to contact us.” Bill Waterson (Calvin & Hobbes) _______________________________________________ cobbler mailing list [email protected] https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/cobbler
