Hi-

I am running RedHat Enterprise version 6.

Linux luke 2.6.32-131.17.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Sep 29 10:24:25 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I'm trying to install puppet. I added the puppetlabs repos using this RPM:

http://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/6/products/x86_64/puppetlabs-release-6-6.noarch.rpm

When I try to install facter (or puppet), it tries to install ruby and ruby-libs , and fails
because it can't find  the version of tcl it needs:


 yum install facter

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

This has worked in the past on my RHEL5 machines, where the version of TCL  is 8.4.13,
but the version on RHEL6 is 8.5.7

I see folks on this list using RHEL6- I was wondering how you got past this?

It's not them, it's you.  Something is screwed up with your repository configuration.  It looks like you're trying to install a mix of RHEL 5 and RHEL 6 packages on your system.  Also, probably some third-party or homebrew, since I see a Ruby 1.8.7...el5, and RHEL 5's official Ruby is pinned at version 1.8.5.  In direct response to your question, the EL6 ruby-libs package has no dependency on any version of Tcl or tk.

It looks like you have RHEL 6 and 5 content mixed as John said.

We do ship a Ruby 1.8.7 in PuppetLabs-deps for Puppet 3.0 for EL5
only. You shouldn't be trying to grab that, as you're on EL6.

Do the puppetlabs* files look correct in /etc/yum.repos.d ?

In the hope that this is helpful information, libtk comes from the yk RPM
and on my RHEL 5 systems, the latest is 8.4.13-5.el5_1.1

I do not have any RHEL 6 systems available to check.

Hi,

I have faced the same issue and got resolved by pointing the puppetlabs repo to epel 6 version..

https://yum.puppetlabs.com/el/6/dependencies/x86_64/

-Arun

Thanks for any input,

Mark

I had to do 'yum clean all' to clear out the el5 packages erroneously installed, before I could successfully install el6 puppet packages.
