Package dependency paradox with package 'tuned'

[Eino Virtanen]

I am using CentOS with a PREEMPT Kernel. I ran an update and
encountered the following error:

###
--> Running transaction check
---> Package device-mapper-multipath-libs.x86_64 0:0.4.9-119.el7 will

               tuned = 2.8.0-5.el7
###

My interpretation is that the 'tuned-profiles-realtime' requires
'tuned' version '2.8.0', but version '2.9.0-1.el7' is currently
installed? Should I force installation of 'tuned' version '2.8.0', or
what would be a sensible solution to this problem?

Thank you in advance,

My interpretation is that 'tuned-profiles-realtime' needs to be
compiled with tuned version '2.9.0-1.el7.  Because it requires
version 2.8 of tuned, it is blocking the update to tuned 2.9.

You should open a bugzilla against tuned-profiles-realtime asking for
it to be recompiled with tuned 2.9.  Maybe it's already done, and just
waiting in testing for enough karma, and you've just been caught by a
timing issue, though.  So, you could wait a day or two to see if the
situation resolves itself.

PS this is the Fedora list, your question is probably more appropriate
for a centos list, if there is one.  I know, I know, cousins.

Ah, allright, thanks for clearing that up for me Stan!
