Hi all,
I'm trying to install libvirt for xen on a brand new, minimal
installation of CentOS 7.5.1804. After installing the OS, I did a 'yum
update' and followed the basic how-tos at
https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart
and
https://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Xen/Xen4QuickStart/Xen4Libvirt
From previous experience, I know that the above steps worked fine.
However, now on CentOS 7.5, I am seeing the dependency resolution failing.
$ yum install libvirt libvirt-daemon-xen
[ ... ]
Error: Package: libvirt-daemon-xen-3.2.1-402.el7.x86_64 (centos-virt-xen-46)

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I've never seen an error like this before. As far as I read it,
libvirt-daemon-xen wants version 3.2.1 of its dependencies. I've checked
the repositories and it seems that in 'base' and 'updates' we have
version 3.9.0 and in the 'virt' repo we have 3.2.1 of libvirt. Can I
solve this issue on my end? Should I force yum to install the packages
from the 'virt' repo?
Cheers,
Frank
