fresh install centos 7 problems

[Joep]

Half an hour ago I did an fresh install of Centos 7, after completing the installation, first thing I did is installing Percona Server.

The installation went with success, I haven't installed any other packages since, and the CentOs installation was minimal.

Now I ran yum update and I directly get loads of conflicts, bit strange for an fresh installation?

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

Log of installation

I am sitting here doing the exact same thing. yum update on a fresh percona 5.7 install and am getting the exact same conflicts as you. Hoping to a resolution here.... I'm not sure how to proceed, keep us updated! I'll let you know as well if I figure it out.

[Justin (jricci)]

I tried this:
yum --exclude=*cluster*,*shared-55*,*shared-56* update
and got it to successfully skip the bad dependencies, since i'm using percona 5.7

It attempts to update percona-release 'noarch' but gives me this error:
percona-release-0.1-4.noarch.r FAILED
http://repo.percona.com/release/7/RPMS/noarch/percona-release-0.1-4.noarch.rpm: [Errno -1] Package does not match intended download.

[Justin (jricci)]

I believe I got around the issue by doing this:

yum remove mariadb-libs
yum remove percona-release
yum install http://www.percona.com/downloads/percona-release/redhat/0.1-4/percona-release-0.1-4.noarch.rpm

yum update

<< all clear! >>

I'm not sure what originally installed mariadb-libs but nothing depended on it.

[CJ (rcj1)]

For us, percona-toolkit requires perl-DBD-MySQL, which subsequently requires mariadb-libs.

Seems like we either would need to find another source for DBD or find a way to bypass the mariadb-libs requirement.

CJ, could you please file a new bug with Percona Toolkit?

[Jervin R (revin)]

This is also true on 5.7, if you remove mariadb-libs, some packages like Perl-DBI requires libmysqlclient. To workaround, I installed both Percona-*-shared-56|57 and Percona-*shared-compat-56|57 after removing mariadb-libs.

Percona now uses JIRA for bug reports so this bug report is migrated to: https://jira.percona.com/browse/PS-3602
