[SOLVED] [yum] How to update a package to a certain version?

thomas2004ch · 12-02-2014, 12:35 AM

The installed version of package for example is the

Code:

Installed Packages
hibernate4-infinispan-eap6.noarch           4.2.7-8.SP4_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5             installed
Available Packages
hibernate4-infinispan-eap6.noarch           4.2.7-3.3.SP1_redhat_3.ep6.el5             proactiv-jbappplatform-6-x86_64-server-5-rpm-20140925
hibernate4-infinispan-eap6.noarch           4.2.7-8.SP4_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5             proactiv-jbappplatform-6-x86_64-server-5-rpm-20140925
hibernate4-infinispan-eap6.noarch           4.2.7-9.SP5_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5             proactiv-jbappplatform-6-x86_64-server-5-rpm-20140925
hibernate4-infinispan-eap6.noarch           4.2.14-2.SP1_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5            proactiv-jbappplatform-6-x86_64-server-5-rpm-20140925
hibernate4-infinispan-eap6.noarch           4.2.14-8.SP3_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5            proactiv-jbappplatform-6-x86_64-server-5-rpm-20140925
[root@s001c1001 ~]#

But I just want to update this package to version 'hibernate4-infinispan-eap6.noarch 4.2.7-9.SP5_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5'.

How can I do that?

I've tried using following commands but fails.

Code:

yum update hibernate4-infinispan-eap6-4.2.7-9.SP5_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5

Code:

yum install hibernate4-infinispan-eap6-4.2.7-9.SP5_redhat_1.1.ep6.el5

Any idea?

Always is recommended to upgrade altest available version. Not sure why you interested to install some other version. Anyway if you want to do that download the particular rpm and install it manually.
