| Summary | 0000488: nginx package has moved to epoch 2, and supersedes the nginx stable repository | ||||
| Description | Following updating to Almalinux 9.5, the nginx package has the following version: 2:1.20.1-20.el9.alma.1 This supersedes the package available from the Nginx repository, and installing any nginx package from the nginx-stable repository is automatically downgraded to the appstream repository at the next update | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | enable the nginx-stable repo (baseurl=http://nginx.org/packages/centos/$releasever/$basearch/) install nginx from the nginx-stable repo (1:1.26.2-1.el9.ngx is latest) run "yum update" -- this attempts to downgrade the nginx version to the appstream version. | ||||
| Additional Information | I may be missing something, but I do not understand why the epoch has changed in this package. ========= Installed Packages nginx.x86_64 2:1.20.1-20.el9.alma.1 @appstream Available Packages nginx.x86_64 1:1.20.2-1.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 1:1.22.0-1.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 1:1.22.1-1.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 1:1.24.0-1.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 1:1.26.0-1.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 1:1.26.1-1.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 1:1.26.1-2.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 1:1.26.2-1.el9.ngx nginx-stable nginx.x86_64 2:1.20.1-20.el9.alma.1 appstream | ||||

As a workaround, I have disabled the nginx packages within the appstream repo. In /etc/yum.repos.d/almalinux-appstream.repo within the [appstream] section I added the line: exclude=nginx* |

Should be fixed now. https://github.com/nginx/nginx/issues/343 |

Thank you. Yes all seems fine now. Interesting to read the reason why it changed. |
