Yum update problem

Post by hyungjun » 2021/05/13 00:25:12

Hi all. I am having trouble yum update after install R program. This program were installed follow procedure

https://computingforgeeks.com/install-r ... hel-linux/

when i update my centos system, i show below error message :

[asd@localhost ~]$ sudo yum update
[sudo] password for asd:
Last metadata expiration check: 0:49:30 ago on Thu May 13 08:30:34 2021.
Error:
Problem: package R-devel-4.0.4-1.el8.x86_64 requires R-core-devel = 4.0.4-1.el8, but none of the providers can be installed
- cannot install the best update candidate for package R-devel-1-1.x86_64
- nothing provides openblas-devel needed by R-core-devel-4.0.4-1.el8.x86_64
- nothing provides texinfo-tex needed by R-core-devel-4.0.4-1.el8.x86_64
(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Do you know a solution to that?

Many Thanks

Song

Enable the powertools repo.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
