Upgrade from 7.1.7 to 7.5.4 FAILS!

[jvanv8]

I am trying to update Plesk using the Updater and selecting 7.5.4 (currently 7.1.7, started out with 7.0.x) but it fails. The failure report states:

I have no idea why it didn't work or how to fix it?? Any ideas?
Thanks

You need to remove openssh-askpass-3.6.1p2-33.30.1 and openssh-askpass-gnome-3.6.1p2-33.30.1 then run the installer again. It wants to upgrade openssh but can't due to them being there. Once you've done the upgrade you can reinstall newer versions of them.

#rpm -e openssh-askpass*
