After updating rpm.rte to the latest version, yum is no longer functional.
rpm.rte = 4.15.1.1017
oslevel=7200-05-08-2420
# yum list
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 lua_newuserdata was referenced
from module /usr/opt/rpm/lib/librpmio.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, Dec 15 2022, 05:12:43)
[GCC 8.3.0]
If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to
the yum faq at:
http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq
I suspect the problem lies in liblua from the new rpm.rte, as the linked version of the .so file liblua-5.4.so does not contain the corresponding symbol.
When I replace the library from rpm.rte , it works.
