Hi Everyone,
I have a CentOS 7 box that's refusing a rpm update. I suspect it has something to do with SCL enabled. The 'yum update' output is shown below.
I need to force this package to install. I don't give a damn about the log files. I need that server patched since it is forward facing. Taking the server offline is not an option.
How do I force the package installation?
Thanks in advance.
