[yocto] dnf error

[Russell Peterson]

Hello,

I am upgrading from pyro to rocko and see something I can’t figure out (see error below).

I can’t tell if this is dnf telling me there are multiple sources for python or something else.  Not sure what “conflicting” means.  I do know that the rpm produced by the of ofa-kernel recipe has some python scripts in it and thus requires python.  and RDEPENDS for python did not solve it.  I just have no idea why the image class or dnf thinks the hosttools “provide” anything.  The python in hosttools is certainly there but I assume that is just found using PATH.

Any advice would be welcome.

Regards,

Russell
