RPM install fails on perl-List-MoreUtils CentOS 8

[dfmco]

Nothing provides perl-List-MoreUtils needed by nagiosxi-5.7.4-1.el8.x86_64. I do have EPEL and PowerTools repo enabled. Not sure what I could be missing here.

From the repo page this does not exist in CentOS:
subscription-manager repos --enable codeready-builder-for-rhel-8-x86_64-rpms

I found where perl-List-MoreUtils should be provided by PowerTools but a yum whatprovides perl-List-MoreUtils fails to find it once PowerTools is enabled.

Apparently this package is in the "PowerTools" CentOS repo, and you can install it thru the following command:

Code: Select all

dnf --enablerepo=PowerTools install perl-List-MoreUtils

Yes, it should be there but it does not find that package. Sorry if I was not clear earlier. I did install PowerTools repo and the package is not found.

I just attempted this on a base CentOS 8 install.

Code: Select all

I'm not sure why this isn't working for you. What steps did you take to enable the PowerTools repo? Can you replicate the steps above?

Did this on a NEW FRESH install and still no go. Must be a bug.

Try running the following to clear out the repository cache so it can be recreated.
Run this:

Code: Select all

dnf clean all

Then see if you can install the perl-List-MoreUtils package.

Code: Select all

dnf install perl-List-MoreUtils

If it still does not install, run the following as root and post the output here.

Code: Select all

dnf repolist
dnf list |grep perl-List-MoreUtils

[dfmco]

I did a dnf upgrade and reboot and it is working now. Seems like a CentOS 8 bug maybe?

[ssax]

I do not see you running this command:

Code: Select all

yum config-manager --set-enabled PowerTools

Does "yum repolist" show the PowerTools repo now?
