Hi list, today I tried to update my centos workstation (7.6.1810). My problem concerns kmod-nvidia update. Nvidia driver where installed by elrepo. During running yum update I get:
kmod-nvidia.x86_64 430.40-2.el7_7.elrepo elrepo
and I also get several statements like this:

I noticed that running "yum list kmod-nvidia" I have installed version 430.40-1.el7_6.elrepo and now is available version 430.40-2.el7_7.elrepo and the first thing that I see is minor release change from 7_6 to 7_7.
Reading from this https://elrepo.org/bugs/view.php?id=920&nbn=4 seems that kmod-driver was uploaded for 7.7 release but centos is on 7.6. I'm not using elrepo-testing but yum try to update 7_7 version.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance
Yes, please install yum-plugin-elrepo which will fix the 'issue' for you.
Yum is telling you that it can not install the latest kmod-nvidia version because it requires the CentOS 7.7 kernel, which is not yet available to you.
By installing yum-plugin-elrepo, the plugin will mask (hide) from yum any kmod package which requires a kernel which is not available to yum. Once the CentOS 7.7 kernel becomes available to you, yum will then also see the corresponding kmod-nvidia update for that kernel and you will be able to update as required.

Hi Phil, thank you for your answer. I don't know anything about the existence of this plugin. Thank you very much.
