yum update is failing in centos 8

Post by DarrellJorgensen » 2021/06/14 11:35:13

I have a redhat.repo file which points to a list of rpms. This repo has different versions of nginx. Currently in this machine, I'm nginx 1.10. My requirement is to update nginx to 1.14. I have confirmed that I have nginx 1.14 rpm in my repo. This is what I'm facing
UPSers
[root@localhost ~]# yum list installed | grep nginx
nginx-filesystem.noarch 1:1.10.1-9 @AppStream_x86_64_os
When I try to update, I am getting "Dependencies resolved, Nothing todo"

[root@localhost ~]# yum update nginx-filesystem.noarch

The AppStream repo has nginx 1.14 in CentOS 8.4. You don't need any external repo for it. Try dnf module list nginx and see which copy you have enabled.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
