Thanks for your reply John. I read about your first solution which you
posted earlier but I'm trying the second one.
yum repo: (This was updated)
Available Packages
libstdc++.i686
4.4.7-4.el6
libstdc++.x86_64
4.4.7-4.el6
Current package on agent:
libstdc++-4.4.7-3.el6.i686
libstdc++-4.4.7-3.el6.x86_64
Puppet Master:
In hiera
packages::aa_app_req:
- libtiff
- libpng
- libstdc++.x86_64
- libtiff.i686
- libpng.i686
- libstdc++.i686
In manifest
$aa_app_req_array = hiera_array('packages::aa_app_req')
package { $aa_app_req_array:
# ensure => installed,
ensure => latest,
}
Now as the repository has been updated recently and the agent already has
previous version of both arch installed, the next puppet run fails with the
multilib error. If you could help me understand whether I'm implementing
the 2nd solution correctly?
Error: Could not update: Execution of '/usr/bin/yum -d 0 -e 0 -y install
libstdc++.x86_64' returned 1: Error: Protected multilib versions:
libstdc++-4.4.7-4.el6.x86_64 != libstdc++-4.4.7-3.el6.i686
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
thanks,
amogh
