I was trying to clean up old kernels to make space on the /boot filesystem. When getting ready to remove the old kernel, I received "There are unfinisthed transactions remaining. You might consider running yum-complete-transaction first to finish them. The program yum-complete-transaction is found in the yum-utils package."
Unfortunately, I did a yum search yum, and there is not a yum-utils package.
How do I get the correct yum-utils pacakage installed?
[root@lumportal2 ~]# yum install yum-utils
Loaded plugins: security
Setting up Install Process
No package yum-utils available.
Nothing to do
[root@lumportal2 ~]#
Thank you! I was able to get yum-utils package installed.
I had to edit the /etc/yum.repos.d/public-yum-el15.repo.rpmnew-disabled and then edit the el_u5_base to be enabled.
Again, thank you for all your help.
