Apparent conflict between python 3.7 and 3.9 with dnf update on AIX 7.3

  • 1.  Apparent conflict between python 3.7 and 3.9 with dnf update on AIX 7.3

    Posted 23 days ago

    I have an AIX 7.3 system that we upgraded to dnf  from yum for the AIX Toolbox via the dnf_aixtoolbox.sh script.  I was able to do a dnf update --nobest but I recieve the following messages when I try to do a dnf update.  Has anyone seen anything like this before or have a suggestion on what is the root cause of the issue?

    Error:

    I was able to resolve the issue. We were using replicated repos which had stopped replicating some time back.  I synched the local repos with IBM's repos and everything worked without issues.
