Hello,

recently I posted a similar question. Now we have another problem on other LPARs, with a different error message.

We did an AIX migration from AIX 7.1 to 7200-05-04-2220, which worked fine.

Unfortunately yum now doesn't work anymore:


$ yum update
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

rtld: 0712-001 Symbol _GLOBAL__AIXI_libbz2_so was referenced
from module /opt/freeware/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/bz2.so(), but a runtime definition
of the symbol was not found.
rtld: 0712-001 Symbol _GLOBAL__AIXD_libbz2_so was referenced
from module /opt/freeware/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/bz2.so(), but a runtime definition
of the symbol was not found.

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.7.18 (default, May 31 2021, 11:28:01)
[GCC 8.3.0]

...
...


I did an updtvpkg before and updated sqlite to sqlite-3.37.2-1.ppc via rpm which was the suggestion for the first problem.

So see the versions of libs, which might be relevant:

$ rpm -qa|grep lib
libconfuse-3.2.2-2.ppc
libffi-3.2.1-3.ppc
libgcc-8.3.0-1.ppc
libstdc++-8.3.0-1.ppc
libiconv-1.16-1.ppc
xz-libs-5.2.5-1.ppc
libgomp-8.3.0-1.ppc
libtextstyle-0.20.2-1.ppc
glib2-2.56.1-3.ppc
krb5-libs-1.18.3-1.ppc
libtasn1-4.16.0-1.ppc
ganglia-lib-3.7.2-2.ppc
libssh2-1.9.0-1.ppc
libnghttp2-1.41.0-1.ppc
zlib-1.2.11-2.ppc
libmpc-1.1.0-1.ppc
libunistring-0.9.10-1.ppc
libxml2-2.9.11-1.ppc

Some more versions:

$ rpm -qa|grep yum
yum-3.4.3-8.noarch
yum-metadata-parser-1.1.4-2.ppc

$ rpm -qa|grep -i python
python-iniparse-0.4-1.noarch
python-urlgrabber-3.10.1-1.noarch
python-pycurl-7.43.0-1.ppc
python-tools-2.7.18-3.ppc
python-devel-2.7.18-3.ppc
python3-3.7.11-1.ppc
python-2.7.18-3.ppc
$


Any hints?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards

Hi Hans, 

As discussed in other thread here also same thing happened. In this case rpm.rte has overwritten bzip2 library. 
AIX bzip2 and AIX toolbox bzip2 libraries are different and hence you are seeing the issue. 
To overcome this please install bzip2 rpm package manually from AIX toolbox. 
We will see how can we stop these issues of migration by making changes in our packaging or discuss if rpm.rte changes are needed.
But for time being installing manually the affected package is the solution.

Hi Sanket,

thanks for your quick response.

I didn't know of different versions of packages (bzip2 in this case).

As you suggested I reinstalled bzip2 from AIX toolbox (with rpm --force). After that yum works again.

Thanks again!
