 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Ok, a generic `yum update` does exhibit the problem.

Olivier, saw your post on packetfence-users list, doing 'yum update' (taking care of enabling the repos) on the 3.5.1 ESX VPX/image reproduces the issue exactly. HTH!

I tried several things and it didn't work.

I considered updating our code to 3.x w/ the v2 compat module but found that it has been dropped already by upstream: https://metacpan.org/source/OLIVER/Net-Appliance-Session-4.122630/Changes [^]

I'm thinking of providing our own N::A::S in our repo w/ an Epoch in front of the version.

Ok, we created a perl-Net-Appliance-Session with epoch 1 so that 1:1.36 will be better than 0:3.xx.. The patch on the repoforge spec will be attached here.

Please confirm that this fixes your issue.

Can you try:

yum clean all

with all the proper repositories enabled.

Then confirm that a `yum update` proceeds successfully.

Thanks!

Confirmed as fixed on the mailing list.

Basically, we worked around upstream EPEL providing a newer package and RPM from not honoring our hardcoded required version in our SPEC. We fakely created a newer package by using Epoch flag in our repo.

Once 0001313 is fixed, we'll get rid of our package.
