Hi All,
Thank you all for looking into this issue. I just ran into it and epel was my problem as well. However due to $reasons I am not allowed to disable the epel repository. If someone is in the same situation this can be fixed with by adding a priority=999 to epel’s repo file.
This sets the priority lower for the epel repo which means that all other repos are considered first, even if the package version there is lower. Only if a required package is not found in other repos then epel will be considered.
Cheers!
