    • Unable to Upgrade System Due to "expect" Package Failure

    Posted on

    Hi,
    I am trying to figure out why the 

    expect
    package keeps failing, or even what's pulling it in. At this point, the system is subscribed as expected, yet yum fails with a message of "403 Forbidden" when trying to download it over the past week, at least.

Error downloading packages:

    Attempts to skip the failing package with 

    --skip-broken
    have no effect.
    Any help is greatly appreciated and sorely needed.

    Thank you
