replace atomic's repo with EPEL & REMI

[d8_compiler]

i've tried today, to replace the up-to-date packages from epel/remi repositories with atomic's packages
and recieved Transaction Check Error's. i can not proceed with my update.


questions:

1. are the epel/remi repos recommended for servers using plesk ?
2. when will the atomic repo release php 5.3.6 ?
3. how can i clear the transaction check error's ?

1. Epel is probably OK with plesk, Remi I'm not sure about. I'd ask remi what he thinks about it
2. PHP 5.3.6 was published to the atomic channel earlier this week
3. What you're seeing is a conflict between having both the x86_64 and i386 builds installed on the same system. The conflict is coming from the remi package, so I'd try disabling that repo and upgrading with the 5.3.6 packages from the atomic side.

thank you - how to do so ?

Code: Select all

yum update --enablerepo atomic

[scott]

you can disable a repo by removing the .repo file, editing the file and adding "enabled=0" to the channel, or specifying --disablerepo=<reponame> from the config.

If that still doesnt clear things up for you, you might want to try removing the .i386 php packages from your system.
