<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I tried to run yum update on a CentOS 5.8 OpenVZ host server today and something strange happened. Yum tries to update vzctl-core to version 4.0-1, which seems to require an updated plop-lib package, but the updated plop-lib
package from the yum repository requires a kernel >= 2.6.32 (CentOS 5 runs on 2.6.18). As a result, the entire update fails. It looks like there are the wrong package versions in the yum repository for RHEL/CentOS 5 – or is there something else going on?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
