Dear list, I have an issue updating a CentOS 7.9 machine.

A simple "yum update" exists with this error:

# yum update --> Running transaction check ---> Package kernel.x86_64 0:3.10.0-1160.36.2.el7 will be erased --> Finished Dependency Resolution ERROR: update failed. Check the log file for details ... Protected multilib versions: libsss_idmap-1.16.5-10.el7_9.11.x86_64 != libsss_idmap-1.16.5-10.el7_9.10.i686 Error: Protected multilib versions: libsss_nss_idmap-1.16.5-10.el7_9.11.x86_64 != libsss_nss_idmap-1.16.5-10.el7_9.10.i686

Trying to update excluding all i686 packages reveal the true issue: an unmet dependency of

# yum update --exclude="*.i686" libsss_idmap Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package libsss_idmap.x86_64 0:1.16.5-10.el7_9.10 will be updated --> Processing Dependency: libsss_idmap = 1.16.5-10.el7_9.10 for package: sssd-client-1.16.5-10.el7_9.10.x86_64 ---> Package libsss_idmap.x86_64 0:1.16.5-10.el7_9.11 will be an update --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: sssd-client-1.16.5-10.el7_9.10.x86_64 (@updates)            Requires: libsss_idmap = 1.16.5-10.el7_9.10

Basically, yum tries to update libsss_idmap to a too new version, not allowed in for sssd-client. I do not use sssd so I can simply uninstall the packages, but I am curious about the unmet dependency.

Anyone has the same issue?

sssd-client-1.16.5-10.el7_9.11.i686.rpm exists and is here:

Not sure why you are not seeing it in your update.
