dnf migration: yum inconsistency

  • 1.  dnf migration: yum inconsistency

    Posted 05/18/22 09:29 AM
    Edited by C- -T 05/18/22 09:30 AM
    while doing yum to dnf migration via dnf_aixtoolbox.sh, another odd error emerges. it bugs me about a "yum-3.4.3-8.noarch" package which is not even installed but breaks the dnf transaction check!?. dnf clean all and updtvpkg doas not help.
    running "rpm -e yum" resolves the issue, and the update command runs through. please elaborate why is this and how this can avoided.

    log of install:

dnf installed successfully.
Please run 'dnf update' to update packages to the latest level.

Please note, RPM packages are downloaded in dnf cache /var/cache/dnf.
RPM packages install files go under the path /opt.
Hence it is recommended to always keep at least 512MB of free space in /var & /opt
to avoid any download and installation/update failures.

    Hi Chris,

    I believe this a Migration to AIX 7.3.
    In this case the update should have tried like this.

    dnf   ppc 4.2.17-64_51 AIX_Toolbox_73 11 k
    replacing yum.noarch 4.2.17-64_4

    Instead it's trying to downgrade yum.

    Can you please share your dnf.conf file entries ?

    there is indeed this old yum version in the repo, maybe this is the culprit?

    Hi Chris,

    Installing DNF from bundle and updating from yum-3.4.3-8 to yum-4.2.17-64_4 is happening correctly.
    Problem I see is Downgrading to yum-3.4.3-8 when we do "dnf update" after updating to yum-4.2.17-64_4.
    When we run "dnf update" after setting DNF from dnf bundle, the dnf-4.2.17-64_51 would be replacing yum-4.2.17-64_4 even if yum-3.4.3-8 is present in the repo.

    Not sure if /var/cfengine/bin/cf-agent would be adding some extra configs to dnf.conf which causing this error.

    The output "dnf list yum" and "dnf list dnf" you showed are from the different machine ?

    the shown dnf.conf is what we are using everywhere, no artifical entries by cfengine. the dnf list commands are from one machine which shows the problem, and there are many. the  problem is alway this yum/yum-utils package in version 3.4..3-8 which triggers a downgrade of the dnf bundled yum.

    is see them in the noarch directory:
    root@nimvie: /srv/www/repos/ibm_aixtoolbox_mirror/RPMS/noarch/yum # ls
.listing                       yum-3.4.3-2.aix6.1.noarch.rpm  yum-3.4.3-4.aix6.1.noarch.rpm  yum-3.4.3-6.aix6.1.noarch.rpm  yum-3.4.3-8.aix6.1.noarch.rpm
yum-3.4.3-1.aix6.1.noarch.rpm  yum-3.4.3-3.aix6.1.noarch.rpm  yum-3.4.3-5.aix6.1.noarch.rpm  yum-3.4.3-7.aix6.1.noarch.rpm

    Hi Chris,

    I see that presence of yum-utils once after update to dnf from bundle is causing to downgrade yum.
    I will check and let you know if we can automatically remove dnf yum without manually removing the yum-utils before running dnf update.

    Hi Steve,

    Sorry. I missed this one.
    One possibility which i can think of is rebuilding dnf-utils which can replace yum-utils without manually removing the yum-utils.

    Installing:
    dnf-utils ppc 4.0.16-64_51_1 dnf_local 9.2 k
        replacing yum-utils.noarch 1.1.31-2

    I will do more testing and let you know in couple of day.
