    You have a very old libgcc-4.8.3-1.ppc

    Furthermore, I do not see the libstdc++ package, which would provide /opt/freeware/lib/libstdc++.a

    In your other thread, your  oslevel shows 7200-05-06-2320 but this output shows AIX-rpm-7.1.5.33-10.ppc  - not sure if you are reporting issues on two different LPARS...

    How did you install DNF?

    Did you install DNF from the script, then run "dnf update"?

    Hello Jan,

    Both are different LPAR and having different error. Earlier I used DNF script to install all dnf and python related packages (It was installed around 4 month before) But now when we tried to update it is giving this error.

    You have libgcc-4.8.3-1.ppc

    I do not even see this as an available version on the AIX toolbox archives.

    I only found that version on

    http://www.oss4aix.org/download/RPMS/gcc/

    And of course, if I install that version, I get the same errors.

    Maybe you had this before you installed the basic DNF packages, and the installer saw libgcc and continued to install DNF basic.

    But since this is not an AIX libgcc.a, it is missing the symbols.

    You can see when this was installed with:

     rpm -q libgcc --last

    If you have other non-Toolbox packages, they might cause similar issues.

    I do not see the following versions on the AIX Toolbox, so if these are from non-AIX sources, they might also cause issues. 

    • libgcc-4.8.3-1.ppc l
    • ibiconv-1.15-1.ppc
    • popt-1.16-2.ppc

    You can check all your packages with: 

    # rpm -qai  | egrep "Name|Install Date|Build Date|Build Host"

    If you do not see IBM build hosts

    For example:

    Build Host  : aixoss2-lp3.pok.stglabs.ibm.com

    You should consider reinstalling those packages.

    Thanks Jan for the update. 

    How can we fix this issue now? Shall we clean up and installed the DNF in fresh way or is there any there alternative to remove the problematic packages manually.

    I did some more testing.  I checked  libgcc-4.8.5-1.aix7.2.ppc.rpm from the Toolbox, and it did not have  Symbol _GLOBAL__AIXD_shr_o exported symbols either. But this is more than 7 years old. 

    It looks like libdnf-0.39.1-32_3.ppc delivers the following libraries:

    /opt/freeware/libdnfdeps/libgcc_s.a
    /opt/freeware/libdnfdeps/libstdc++.a

    And if these  do not exist:

    • /opt/freeware/lib/pthread/libgcc_s.a
    • /opt/freeware/lib/libgcc_s.a
    •  /opt/freeware/lib/libstdc++.a

    Then the package will create a symlink so basic DNF can run.

    •  /opt/freeware/lib/libstdc++.a -> /opt/freeware/libdnfdeps/libstdc++.a
    • /opt/freeware/lib/libgcc_s.a-> /opt/freeware/libdnfdeps/libgcc_s.a
    • /opt/freeware/lib/pthread/libgcc_s.a> /opt/freeware/libdnfdeps/libgcc_s.a

    So first you can try this:

    # export LIBPATH=/opt/freeware/libdnfdeps:$LIBPATH; dnf update;unset LIBPATH

    I tested this, and it worked for me.

    If that does not work, you can try to update to the lowest version that does have the exported symbols:

    I chose 6.3 with my 72 system and could run DNF with this version.

    # rpm -ivh libgcc-6.3.0-2.aix7.2.ppc.rpm

    Another option would be to relink the files to the temporary libdnf versions

     ln -sf  /opt/freeware/libdnfdeps/libgcc_s.a /opt/freeware/lib/pthread/libgcc_s.a

     ln -sf  /opt/freeware/libdnfdeps/libgcc_s.a /opt/freeware/lib/libgcc_s.a

    But I do not think you will need to do that. The LIBPATH should work.

    Once the dnf update runs successfully, then libdnf-0.39.1-32_3.ppc is updated to a newer version that no longer provides this libgcc.a

    # rpm -q --whatprovides /opt/freeware/lib/libgcc_s.a;rpm -q --whatprovides /opt/freeware/lib/pthread/libgcc_s.a
    libgcc-10-2.ppc
    libgcc-10-2.ppc

    Thanks Jan for the help. We implement the steps as you suggested in first step export path and it fix the issue. Really appreciate the support.

    export LIBPATH=/opt/freeware/libdnfdeps:$LIBPATH
