When I attempted to update a remote server via SSH last night the UPS on my local workstations failed, causing the SSH session to get dropped in the middle of the upgrade process. This morning I am not able to complete the update. When it failed when I tried to run it again thins morning I did the suggested things like "dnf clean all" and "rpm -rebuilddb", and I still get

I've launch a "yum update" while I was going to lunch. 1 hour later the system was completely freezed (no mouse, no keyboard, screen black, no network). I try a hard reboot => kernel panic on the new kernel I boot on the old kernel => boot hangs with gnome-shell failure. SSH was OK so I remove the new kernel and re-install gnome shell. Reboot is ok but now the computer

My live mail server was due an update so I ran yum update All seemed file so I told it to proceed. HOwever it then hung for over 30 minutes. I stopped the update and tried again. It complained about problems with the update, so I tried yum --skip-broken -y update which then hung at a different place. After some Googling I tried yum-complete-transaction and package-cleanup

Don't kill yum in the middle of a run if you can possibly avoid it. I always favour "package-cleanup --cleandupes --removenewestdupes" But right now, the problem is you're part way between updated and not. You can be more brutal than package-cleanup or yum are willing to be. You can fix this with yum shell, telling it what you're going to remove and what you're going to add to put it back in a consistent state...

...e. Finishing the most > Any idea to go back to a normal situation before a full re-install ? restoring the old state before the broken 'yum update' can be done by package-cleanup. package-cleanup --dupes will give you a long list of duplicate packages. package-cleanup --cleandupes --removenewestdupes will try to remove the duplicate rpms from the update. after that you should run 'package-cleanup --dupes' and clean the remaining dupes manually. if this is done, you can try to run the 'yum update' again.

...ile from package zlib-1.2.7-17.el7.x86_64 You have to cleanup duplicate packages. package-cleanup from yum-utils will do this job. Basically: package-cleanup --dupes will list the duplicate packages package-cleanup --cleandupes will remove the dupes. If I remember correctly, you have to add --removenewestdupes to the second command. Best regards Ulf
