Hi,
I am on CentOS using Plesk as an administration area and am running into constant errors trying to update any perl packages because of an accidental install of a perl package from a third-party.
When I tried yum remove perl it listed every perl package on my system to remove which is what I do not want. I only want to remove one called perl-5.8.5-9rhel3.art
Below says "success" but those perl packages are not updated.
How can I just remove this one package, perl-5.8.5-9rhel3.art, so the other conflict errors will go away and not break the whole system? These are the errors:
