Transaction Check Error occurs while updating yum
Issue
-
We tried to update yum and creatrepo packages from RHEL5.0 to RHEL5.5 beta. We had the following error.
# yum update yum createrepo <snipped> Transaction Summary ============================================================================= Install 3 Package(s) Update 13 Package(s) Remove 0 Package(s) Total download size: 3.4 M Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Check Error: file /etc/rc.d/init.d/haldaemon from install of hal-0.5.8.1-58.el5 conflicts with file from package hal-0.5.8.1-19.el5 file /usr/share/hal/fdi/fdi.dtd from install of hal-0.5.8.1-58.el5 conflicts with file from package hal-0.5.8.1-19.el5 file /usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-power-mgmt-policy.fdi from install of hal-0.5.8.1-58.el5 conflicts with file from package hal-0.5.8.1-19.el5 -
