I'm following the directions listed on the Katello 2.4 client installation
page and trying to install the subscription-manager on a CentOS 6.7 system.
It used to work fine from the dgoodwin repo but now gives the following
error :
Error: Package: subscription-manager-1.17.6-1.el6.x86_64
(dgoodwin-subscription-manager)
Requires: yum >= 3.2.29-73
Installed: yum-3.2.29-69.el6.centos.noarch
(@anaconda-CentOS-201508042137.x86_64/6.7)
yum = 3.2.29-69.el6.centos
This just started about 2 weeks ago. I did a yum update to ensure that all
packages were up to date and I have the latest version of yum.
Why does this package suddenly require an apparently unreleased version of
yum ?
My understanding is that one of the plugins that comes with
subscription-manager requires the newer version.
As a workaround until CentOS 6.8 is released, you can enable the centos
CR repo[1] and update yum, then disable the repo. You may be able to
specify an older subscription-manager version when installing as well,
but personally I have only used the yum from the CR repo.
