Nagios agent/client on CentOS 5.5, conflicts and errors

Greetings!
I'm installing Nagios client on a web server running Centos 5.5 and running into all kinds of dependency issues and conflicts. I was able to resolve some of them, but right now I'm at this point. Here is a copy/paste of the error:
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Transaction Summary
=============================================================================
Install 17 Package(s)
Update 10 Package(s)
Remove 0 Package(s)

Total download size: 50 M
Downloading Packages:
Running Transaction Test
Finished Transaction Test


Transaction Check Error:
file /usr/kerberos/man/man5/krb5.conf.5.gz from install of krb5-libs-1.6.1-36.el5_5.5.i386 conflicts with file from package krb5-libs-1.6.1-31.el5_3.3.x86_64
*************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

At first the error was reversed but then I removed the krb5-libs-1.6.1-36.el5_5.5.i386 package and it conflicted this way.

Anyone know how to get around this without doing major changes to the server?

Thanks in advanced

Which particular client are you trying to compile and run on this machine or are you referring to Nagios Core its self?

I just followed instructions from this doc: http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... _Agent.pdf

Lets see if we can just update that package first

Code: Select all

yum update krb5-libs

I ran the package update and it proceeded with the install. It got hung up on one of the first package installs of the Nagios script and I had to restart the server, run the script again and it completed without errors. :D
Thanks!!!
