CentOS

Bummer. I'm still on 6 because * My CentOS system does so many things... the best move would be to build a second system and slowly migrate. This system is so central to my network. (File server, dev destkop, MythTV system, Plex Server, DNS/DHCP, Samba Server, Vbox VMs) Ugh. And -- CentOS 7 (well, R...

What about Redhat's upgrade tool?

There's all sorts of google links about it (here's a sample):

I just updated 2 Atom systems. One of them went funky after yum update ran fine. (I was able to request a reboot -- but then had to hard power cycle. That machines is ok) The other system seems to lock up on step 7/8 of the update doing cleanup -- I had to power cycle... The system came back up comp...

Not at the moment. (and being the PITB it seems to be, I'd rather have system stability than the need for video transcoding via handbrake) So at this point, I could just remove all the packages from epel-multimedia. Is there an easy way to do that by repository? (I've seem some awk scripts, but noth...

Sorry for being away...

I thought I'm come back to revisit this -- I meant to ask..

What about just using RPM to pull out the offending version of libwebp and then installing the official one using YUM?

Error: Package: 1:ffmpeg-libs-3.2.4-3.el7.x86_64 (@epel-multimedia) Error: Package: GraphicsMagick-1.3.25-7.el7.x86_64 (@epel-multimedia) Error: Package: webkitgtk3-2.4.9-7.el7.x86_64 (@epel-multimedia) As noted above, downgrade needs all packages listed on the same command that need downgrading at...

As I thought of it -- why not just run YUM with --force to update the system but keep the current libwebp? Mainly because there isn't a --force option :-) LoL -- I'm having a day. I was thinking of 'rpm' -- doh! Ok - let me run off and try those things.... thanks for the help. (I'll be back with re...

You've overwritten the libwebp from our repos with a foreign copy from epel-multimedia. If you yum downgrade it with epel-multimedia disabled it will revert to our copy - you may need to add other packages to that as downgrade needs them listed explicitly, it won't expand the selection like remove ...

If you _attempt_ to yum remove libwebp what else other than the packages listed as problems on your current output does it volunteer to remove with it? Ha -- are you ready for this? LoL... ==============================================================================================================...

Nevermind -- t'was an incomplete package update. This system has a couple packages from epel-multimedia which seem to be foiling up the update. Specifically, Error: Package: GraphicsMagick-1.3.26-3.el7.x86_64 (epel) Requires: libwebp.so.4()(64bit) Available: libwebp-0.3.0-7.el7.x86_64 (base) libwebp...
