dhcp conflicts with dhclient

[shaggyrol]

Hi Guys


Im trying to install dhcp server on F12 with yum, but at the time i issue yum install dhcp, i got the following message:

Transaction Summary
================================================== ================================================== ================================================== ================================================== ===
Install 1 Package(s)

Total size: 821 k
Is this ok [y/N]: y

Transaction Check Error:
file /usr/share/man/man5/dhcp-eval.5.gz from install of dhcp-12:4.1.1-5.fc12.i686 conflicts with file from package dhclient-12:4.1.0p1-17.fc12.i686
file /usr/share/man/man5/dhcp-options.5.gz from install of dhcp-12:4.1.1-5.fc12.i686 conflicts with file from package dhclient-12:4.1.0p1-17.fc12.i686


and i see that if i uninstall the dhclient package, i will lose my networkmanager, which i also need, is there a way to have a dhcp server as well as dhclient utility on fedora as it is possible on rhel?

Your dhclient package is out of date.

This ...
dhclient-12:4.1.0p1-17.fc12.i686
should be
dhclient-12:4.1.1-5.fc12

Try a yum update dhclient. If that doesn't work then erase and install (carefully w/o trashing your network connection in between)
