Note, first of all I haven't actually updated, I'm just running "yum update" to see what conflicts, if any, I get so I can be prepared when the final 7.7 release happens.
I've traditionally used the nvidia packages from elrepo, but recently enabled rpmfusion (back when I started using 7.x, I disabled rpmfusion because it took them a looooong time to get a EL7 repository up).
I use the priority plugin in yum, and have elrepo at priority 50 and rpmfusion at priority 60, so the elrepo nvidia packages should "win", but yum seems to be confused about which packages to use.
So now when doing yum update (with CR enabled) I get this long list of dependency issues regarding the nvidia packages. I don't see any reason to switch to the rpmfusion packages, elrepo seems to do a good job of packaging and keeping them up to date:

I was under the impression that the priorities feature of yum was for the specific purpose of controlling the order in which repos were used for updates, etc.
I have elrepo set with a lower number (40) than rpmfusion (50), so why wouldn't yum be prevented from installing files from rpmfusion in preference to those from elrepo?
I've used the elrepo nvidia drivers for some years and been pleased with the level of service you provide. For free, yet! :)
thanks in advance!

I was under the impression that the priorities feature of yum was for the specific purpose of controlling the order in which repos were used for updates, etc.
I have elrepo set with a lower number (40) than rpmfusion (50), so why wouldn't yum be prevented from installing files from rpmfusion in preference to those from elrepo?
I've used the elrepo nvidia drivers for some years and been pleased with the level of service you provide. For free, yet! :)
Because they have different things that require different versions of the same package. Priorities will, if you have the exact same name-version-release in 2 places, the the package from the lower priority. But if you have 2 different versions of the same package .. ie, abc-123-1 on one service and abc-123-2 in the other ... abc-123-2 always gets installed because it is newer.
Not all repos work together.
If you mix repos (who don't work together to fix their conflicts) .. then you have t figure out what to exclude from one or the other to mkae things work.

I've traditionally used the nvidia packages from elrepo, but recently enabled rpmfusion (back when I started using 7.x, I disabled rpmfusion because it took them a looooong time to get a EL7 repository up).
I use the priority plugin in yum, and have elrepo at priority 50 and rpmfusion at priority 60, so the elrepo nvidia packages should "win", but yum seems to be confused about which packages to use.
So now when doing yum update (with CR enabled) I get this long list of dependency issues regarding the nvidia packages. I don't see any reason to switch to the rpmfusion packages, elrepo seems to do a good job of packaging and keeping them up to date:

Thanks in advance for advice!

This is an artefact of mixing elrepo and rpmfusion. I'd suggest you stick to one or the other, but not enable both at the same time.
What does it look like if you just disable the rpmfusion repo?
yum update --diaablerepo=rpmfusion
Do things look more sane now?
Phil, can youclarify a bit for me pls?

Thanks Johnny!
I went to elrepo because back when I originally went to C7, rpmfusion did not have an EL7 repo. I kept checking back, occasionally, for several years, and only recently learned that they now do.
So now I"m stuck with elrepo. yum gives me a huge list of things from elrepo (a lot of them are things I certainly didn't install on purpose, must have been brought in as dependencies I guess.)
I also was using the nux repo because he had some things nobody else had. but when I discovered that some of the things I had gotten from nux were way out of date, I checked rpmfusion and saw they had modern versions and installed them. (xfreerdp, VLC)
I'll have to go carefully through all the stuff from nux and elrepo to see if I can replace them all by using rpmfusion. If I think I can I guess I need to (probably) painfully remove them all. I can imagine dependency hell happening there though.
Thanks for the explanation.
