Folks

Working in CentOS 7, and with GNOME (three, I presume), installed, I
tried to add the Xfce desktop and got a message:

Error: Package: openssh-askpass-6.6.1p1-11.el7.x86_64 (base)
Requires: openssh = 6.6.1p1-11.el7
Installed: openssh-6.6.1p1-12.el7_1.x86_64 (@updates)
….

Should I try “-skip-broken”, or wait until those packages are fixed? Shouldn’t the repositories always be consistent?

Thanks

David

One thought on - Install Xfce Has Package Requirement Error

  • openssh-askpass is built from the same source package as the openssh package, so the only reason why it would generate that error is if your repo’s metadata is broken, or you have some other dependency on openssh-askpass of that particular version, and not the newer one that matches the openssh package.
