Hello,
I thought I'd wait a little while before upgrading to 5.4, but am running into the following errors:
-> Finished Dependency Resolution lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 from base has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: device-mapper >= 1.02.32-1 is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base) mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-54.i386 from base has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: device-mapper-multipath >= 0.4.7-9 is needed by package mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-54.i386 (base) lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 from base has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: device-mapper-event is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base) Error: Missing Dependency: device-mapper-multipath >= 0.4.7-9 is needed by package mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-54.i386 (base) Error: Missing Dependency: device-mapper-event is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base) Error: Missing Dependency: device-mapper >= 1.02.32-1 is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base)
It would appear that these packages do exist, although earlier versions:
# rpm -q device-mapper device-mapper-1.02.13-1.el5
Any thoughts would be appreaicated.
Regards,
Rohan.
1. Did you follow the procedure in the 5.4 Release Notes (repeated in the release announcement)?
2. Perhaps the repo(s) you're using is/are broken. My DVD contains (among otherstuf) lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386.rpm and device-mapper-1.02.13.1.el5.i386.rpm so that that particular dependency would be resolved easily enough.
