What do I do about it ?
Thanks david
This error sounds like it is SELinux related. Try running 'setenforce 0'
prior to running yum to update the system. If the updates install
correctly and for real this time, it could be either the package scripts
or policy for SELinux at fault. It does not sound like a system relabel
is needed in this case.
