Yum update conflicts in install of mesa-filesystem with nvidia.

Latest response

Hello,

I recently purchased a machine from dell with Red Hat Enterprise Linux Workstation 7.3.

Since not everything in the system is up-to-date, I tried to update 1063 packages with "yum update," and got an error below.

Transaction check error:
file /usr/lib64/vdpau from install of mesa-filesystem-17.2.3-8.20171019.el7.x86_64 conflicts with file from package nvidia-375.20-x86_64.el7.1.x86_64

Other packages have no conflict. I forced update excluding mesa-filesystem, but system ended up with a failure, so I just ran factory reset to start from scratch.

I also took a search about this issue and found some related discussions (https://access.redhat.com/discussions/3101441), but there are no same issue with me. I am pretty new to rhel so cannot make sure this solution would work for me or not.

Could anybody help me go through this problem?
