Yum upgrade fails on libresample conflict for asterisk16

[Stewart1 (Stewart)]

FreePBX 15 / Asterisk 16 originally installed from ISO.

Attempting yum upgrade results in:

Upgrading from FreePBX 13 to 14 Using CLI Tool

Hi, I’m trying to upgrade my FreePBX from version 13 to 14 using the CLI tool provided by Sangoma. When I run the distro-upgrade command this is the output that I get: Checking prerequsites… Checking FreePBX Version [ ] - 13.0.197.22 Checking bitsize of machine [ ] - x86_64 Checking for Hyper-V [ ] Checking for 32 bit packages [ ] - No i686 rpms found Checking available disk space [ …

and several others.

However, the suggested fix (disable the problematic repo) conflicts with other updates and I don’t know how to best proceed.

Why do you have 3rd party (non Sangoma) repositories installed on your FreePBX distro?

Figure that out, and you can figure out why to remove.

Thanks.

A quick check of another system showed that lux is not normally present.

Running yum with --disablerepo=lux allowed the system to upgrade ‘ok’ (it can make and receive calls, but it may be weeks before I learn that something subtle is broken).

Yum showed only one package installed from lux

Asterisk::AMI - Perl module for interacting with the Asterisk Manager...

I had no record of adding lux and suspected that it may have been added maliciously.
However, it turns out to be used by a click-to-call app partly written in perl, which one user wanted.
My bad for poor record keeping.

Thanks again.
