  • 1.  DNF bundle with python3.11

    Posted Wed July 02, 2025 01:11 PM

    We have been asked to remove python3.9 from our environment.  Is it possible to create a new DNF bundle with python3.11?

    Thanks,
    Bryan Lenherr

    This is the error we get because DNF is dependent on Python3.9 it seems?

    /# dnf remove python3-3.9.19-1.ppc
    Error:
     Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected packages: dnf
    (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

    Hi Bryan,

    AIX users will get a DNF bundle with Python 3.12 once the Python 3.12 ecosystem testing is complete, which is currently in progress. It will take a couple of weeks.
