Alas, you've found the bug with libgpod.... The version that was in EPEL had a higher number than the version that shipped with RHEL7. You'll need to do a 'yum downgrade libgpod' -- Pat Riehecky Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory www.fnal.gov www.scientificlinux.org ________________________________________ From: Mailing list for Scientific Linux users worldwide <[log in to unmask]> on behalf of Yasha Karant <[log in to unmask]> Sent: Wednesday, February 19, 2020 6:21 PM To: scientific-linux-users Subject: [SCIENTIFIC-LINUX-USERS] MATE desktop upgrade fail SL7 There are several annoyances in the MATE desktop GUI system that I am hoping an update will address. However, the update fails with: --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: libgpod-0.8.3-7.el7.x86_64 (@epel) Requires: libplist.so.1()(64bit) Removing: libplist-1.10-4.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda/7.2) libplist.so.1()(64bit) Updated By: libplist-1.12-3.el7.x86_64 (sl) ~libplist.so.3()(64bit) Error: Package: libgpod-0.8.3-7.el7.x86_64 (@epel) Requires: libusbmuxd.so.2()(64bit) Removing: usbmuxd-1.0.8-11.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda/7.2) libusbmuxd.so.2()(64bit) Obsoleted By: usbmuxd-1.1.0-1.el7.x86_64 (sl) Not found Updated By: usbmuxd-1.1.0-1.el7.x86_64 (sl) Not found Error: Package: libgpod-0.8.3-7.el7.x86_64 (@epel) Requires: libimobiledevice.so.4()(64bit) Removing: libimobiledevice-1.1.5-6.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda/7.2) libimobiledevice.so.4()(64bit) Updated By: libimobiledevice-1.2.0-1.el7.x86_64 (sl) ~libimobiledevice.so.6()(64bit) Has anyone experienced this update failure and s there a workaround? Or, just move on to EL 8 (I am leaning towards Princeton Springdale 8 if it becomes available or possibly current Oracle EL 8, or simple leaving EL and going to Ubuntu LTS)? I do not like either the current Gnome or KDE desktop environments. Yasha Karant
