Hi Kent,

Does the same error occur if running dnf iinstall script with -y ? (install_dnf.sh -y)

I've struggled couple of times with these quite heavily too; once the only cure was to remove:

all dnf related packages + all python3 packages ..and even then on running install_dnf.sh -y I got errors for some packages with "Skipped" status >> Needed to remove dnf + python + those Skipped packages once more ..THEN it went successfully to the end and dnf started working normally.

I'm not saying "Don't try this at home", but however, make sure U have valid mksysb / PowerVC snapshot etc valid backup in safe before trying .. ;)

Br,

tommi

I did a NMADM upgrade from 7.2 to 7.3. I have tried following multiple directions from @SANGAMESH MALLAYYA but with no luck. Below are the errors that I am getting now.

Hi Kent,

Can you please send me the output of " rpm -q --provides AIX-rpm | grep librpm" ?

If you don't get the output likes librpmio.a(librpmio.so.9) then try running "updtvpkg" first then try running dnf script.
