So what was the resolution to this issue, for any others that run into it?

I had a proxy server issues, once i ran a yum clean all and then a yum update, it purged the entries in the proxy server.

Interesting, as I have multiple FreePBX Distro’s running, and all have updated fine except one, and it’s getting the same type error. I have run ‘yum clean all’ multiple times, still with no luck.

Just tried it again, and am still seeing:

Hi,

We are having the same issues amung others with one of our boxes. It would seem by reading it its a clash between the yum update servers, as two servers are trying to provide two differant versions of the same packages

However, disabling one of the ( my my case i left pbx and disabled updates) run yum clean all and re ran yum update did not fix the issue

A word of warning though, NEVER use yum -y update you should be inspecting each and every package before installing.

Anyone have any ideas on how to resolve this?

I just ran another ‘yum clean all’ and then the yum update, and still I am getting the lib errors as listed above…
