I have recently installed Red Hat RHEL 7 on an x86_64 machine and yum has been failing for some packages with similar (strange) output.
Here is one example, when trying to install gcc:
Error: Package: gcc-4.8.5-11.el7.x86_64 (rhel-7-desktop-rpms) Requires: cpp = 4.8.5-11.el7 Installed: cpp-4.8.5-14.el7.x86_64 (@anaconda/7.4) cpp = 4.8.2-16.el7 cpp = 4.8.5-14.el7 Available: cpp-4.8.2-16.el7.x86_64 (rhel-7-desktop-rpms) cpp = 4.8.2-16.el7 Available: cpp-4.8.2-16.2.el7_0.x86_64 (rhel-7-desktop-rpms) cpp = 4.8.2-16.2.el7_0 Available: cpp-4.8.3-9.el7.x86_64 (rhel-7-desktop-rpms) cpp = 4.8.2-16.el7 cpp = 4.8.3-9.el7 Available: cpp-4.8.5-4.el7.x86_64 (rhel-7-desktop-rpms) cpp = 4.8.2-16.el7 cpp = 4.8.5-4.el7 Available: cpp-4.8.5-11.el7.x86_64 (rhel-7-desktop-rpms) cpp = 4.8.2-16.el7 cpp = 4.8.5-11.el7 Here is the output from:
