Why yum does not consider repository priority when deciding dependencies to install for package ?
Issue
- Suppose there are two repositories
rhel-repoandcustom-repo. Therhel-repoprovides nss package and its dependencies, one of the dependency of nss package is nspr package which provideslibplc4.so. Thecustom-repoalso has a custom packagecustom-nsprwhich provides libplc4.so. In this case require to give priority for Red Hat provided packages and priority 1 has been set onrhel-repoand priority 99 set oncustom-repo. After setting priority also yum does not consider dependencies from therhel-reporepository ?
