    I got the error on my NIM server (which is latest level of AIX 7.2) but it was resolved by re-running "updtvpkg".  Anyone else seen this or have an idea what I should do to resolve on AIX 7.1?  (Note various TL/SP levels involved, some locked to specific TL level)

    You need to have recent openssl fileset "1.2.0.1600 or above" from AIX expansion pack or AIX web download pack programs. 

    After installing it, run "updtvpkg".

               Requires: libX11 >= 1.5.99.902
    Error: Package: libXrender-0.9.9-1.ppc (AIX_Toolbox)
               Requires: libX11.a(libX11.so.6)

     

    The problem is this shows up on an AIX 7.1 TL4sp6 node, but I don't get this on AIX 7.1 TL4SP4.

     

    I can't update past sp6 (due to app vendor crap going on at the moment)

    Please remove the libXrender-0.9.9-1 rpm (and also the devel rpm ) from the repo and re-create the yum data.

    That rpm is useless and it shouldn't be there in AIX Toolbox.

    It's required by cairo, gtk2, libXft and pango, all required software for remote gui for both IBM's WebSphere and some other software.  It was installed as a dependency.

    Left off the follow up question:

    Is it no longer required by those packages (that is in the updated versions of them) because in the versions I have installed I can't remove or update 1 without the other.

    You need to downgrade to 0.9.8-2 and no longer need 0.9.9-1 thing.
