Package mysql is obsoleted by mysql

[jorge ceballos]

Hi,

We currently have a server with Centos 5.11 and Plesk 12.0.18 showing micro update #34 as ok.

Still, since about a week ago, Plesk's auto update has failed with the following message:

Package mysql is obsoleted by mysql, trying to install mysql-5.5.41-15012715.x86_64 instead

Did some research but couldn't find much.

We do carry Atomic's ASL along with its repo.

These are the current mysql packages installed:

rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
plesk-mysql-5.5-14042516
asl-php-mysqlnd-5.4.38-35.el5.art
libmysqlclient15-5.0.77-4.el5_5.4.14042516
mysql-5.5.41-27.el5.art

mysql-libs-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysql-server-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysqltuner-1.4.0-7.el5.art
mysql-devel-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysql-5.5.41-27.el5.art
php53-mysql-5.3.3-26.el5_11
ossec-hids-mysql-2.8.1-47.el5.art

perl-DBD-MySQL-3.0007-2.el5
ruby-mysql-2.7-200705221431
mysql-devel-5.5.41-27.el5.art

Thanks in advance for any advice,

This looks like a known problem. Have you checked KB - http://kb.odin.com/en/123659 ?

Hi Igor,

Yes, forgot to mention I had already tried that too.

# rpm -q mysql-server
mysql-server-5.5.41-27.el5.art

# rpm -q --queryformat "%{name}.%{arch}\n" mysql-server-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysql-server.x86_64

# arch
x86_64

Please advice.

Best regards

You have only one mysql-server package here

rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
plesk-mysql-5.5-14042516
asl-php-mysqlnd-5.4.38-35.el5.art
libmysqlclient15-5.0.77-4.el5_5.4.14042516
mysql-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.26r1127-2.el5
mysql-libs-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysql-server-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysqltuner-1.4.0-7.el5.art
mysql-devel-5.5.41-27.el5.art
mysql-5.5.41-27.el5.art
php53-mysql-5.3.3-26.el5_11
ossec-hids-mysql-2.8.1-47.el5.art
mysql-libs-5.5.41-27.el5.art
perl-DBD-MySQL-3.0007-2.el5
ruby-mysql-2.7-200705221431
mysql-devel-5.5.41-27.el5.art

But many other duplicated packages like mysql-libs, mysql-devel and so on. Remove all extra duplicates.

Ups, you are right Igor!!!
Did not see that; thanks for your help.
Will proceed to erase duplicates and that should fix it.
