You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
** Found 1 pre-existing rpmdb problem(s), 'yum check' output follows:
1:xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-340.29-1.el6.x86_64 has missing requires of xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs(x86-64) = ('1', '340.29', '1.el6')
You can check to see if that is available in repositories you have configure by running something like:
yum provides "*/libminizip*" (Note the quotes are necessary and the / is suggested for this kind of searching.
When I did that on my RHEL6 box it gave various hits including:
minizip-1.2.3-25.el6.x86_64 : Minizip manipulates files from a .zip archive
Repo : rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6
Matched from:
Filename : /usr/lib64/libminizip.so.1.0.0
Filename : /usr/lib64/libminizip.so.1
Which means you could just run "yum install minizip" (assuming you've seturp rhel-x86_64-server-optional-6 as a repository to be searched at RedHat for this system).
Good point John. On my RHEL systems I never add non-RHEL repositories but rather download the packages I need from other sites as required because I don't ever want to accidentally get unexpected packages (or versions that superseded the RHEL versions). On occasion that requires me to also download other packages for libraries that aren't in RHEL so a minor dependency hell but I'd rather risk that than crapping out the system by having something go get the latest upstream glibc.
