Re: [opennms-install] Other than yum

[Daniel L. <dan...@ya...>]

I expect that if he gets back to the list with the output of "yum
--version",
it will show 2 versions of the yum metaparser... hence the original problem
of of yum failing with " TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +=:
'int' and 'str'".

This would indicate a badly upgraded RHEL as you suggest.
