check_package_updates dependency problems #7

Closed palli closed 11 years ago

palli commented 11 years ago

I am not exactly sure what to do about this, but seems like PackageKit is not available on rhel5:

nagios-okplugin-check_package_updates-0.0.6-1.git.4.a01af47.el5.centos.noarch from ok-testing has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: PackageKit is needed by package nagios-okplugin-check_package_updates-0.0.6-1.git.4.a01af47.el5.centos.noarch (ok-testing) Error: Missing Dependency: PackageKit is needed by package nagios-okplugin-check_package_updates-0.0.6-1.git.4.a01af47.el5.centos.noarch (ok-testing) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: package-cleanup --problems package-cleanup --dupes rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.

Yes, this package was never ment for rhel5 since it doesn't contain packagekit, the current build system does not allow for exclusions in the builds so it must be removed manually. I'll have to see if I can find a more permanent solution.

ok gotcha. So correct way on rhe5 is to use check_yum or check_updates instead ?
