The (noarch) package epel-release-7-12.noarch.rpm landed in the the unofficial armhfp-epel repository.

This package conflicts with nethserver-arm-epel
Moreover the yum configuration (epel.repo) it would pull in points to non-exsisting repositories.

Proposal:

  • exclude the offending package in (our) working yum epel.repo configuration

In nethserver-arm testing is a package with above proposal:

(if you did install the faulty epel-release remove this first and (re)install nethserver-arm-epel)

yum update --enablerepo=nethserver-testing nethserver-arm-epel

After installation of this test package the epel-release package should be ignored.

nethserver-arm-epel-7.2 released.

Note
Revisit this workaround if upstream (CentOS) moved somewhere on this issue.
