Upgrade from 8.1 to 8.2

[olivierlambert]

Hi,

That's weird. Have you enable some 3rd party repo (like CentOS or anything else) in the past?

edit: that would be a lot safer to upgrade via the ISO directly: this creates a backup of your previous system so you can rollback easily.

I have not setup any other repos. I was following the upgrade instructions:
https://xcp-ng.org/docs/upgrade.html#from-command-line

To workaround your situation, go for the ISO upgrade

Maybe someone here will have time to take a look if there's any obvious catch with the yum upgrade on your setup (if @stormi is around, but we are all very busy ATM)

We'll do a quick test to see if it can be easily reproduced when upgrading an XCP-ng 8.1 to the current XCP-ng 8.2 + all updates. It's possible that there was a change in the packaging which broke it and that there is an easy fix for it.

@stormi Sounds good. Thank you.

[stormi]

I can confirm that there is an issue. A recent update changed the packaging in a way that causes this conflict. I will fix it.

[olivierlambert]

Nice catch

[stormi]

The issue should now be fixed. Thanks for reporting it!

[Naviathan]

@stormi Thank you for fixing it! I will clear cache and try again this evening.

[Naviathan]

@stormi It is good now! Thank you. I upgraded both of my hosts today without an issue.

Thanks a lot for your feedback!
