I am attempting to yum update package libxslt.x86_64 but run into dependency errors with clam. The issue is that I installed ARTS clam packages in favor of Webmin’s. Mainly because they are automatically installed with ASL. The installed packages are:
when I run yum update for libxslt I get the following errors:

I don't see any of the .vm files installed with rpm-qa. Any ideas as to what can be done to get around this?
Which will only update libxslt and its dependencies.
But, it’s probably best to add an exclude rule to the virtualmin.repo file for any packages you don’t want to get from our repos (likewise for other repos; it’s pretty much always bad to have multiple sources for the same packages…something is bound to break).
I am attempting to install ASL on a Centos 5 server running VM/WM. I am running into the clamav problem. I assume it would be best to remove the VM version of clamav before installing the atomic version. I have attempted yum erase clam* and get the following:

I don’t know anything about ASL or how it or those related packages will affect Virtualmin. So I’m going to assume you know what you’re doing in removing all these packages. I don’t know if it’s a good idea or not to do this
It sounds like yum/rpm is correctly complaining that the virtualmin-base package requires clam, and it’s complaining that one of it’s dependencies is being removed.
If you want to remove it anyway (and you’re fairly sure your packages will work :-), I’d do one of the following:
Use “rpm” with the “–nodeps” flag to remove the clam packages, then install the alternative clam packages afterwards
Try using your alternative clam version to “upgrade” the Virtualmin packages rather than removing them outright.
You have to use Atomics clamav exclusively if you’re using ASL. I have been running for months with Webmin, ASL, OSSEC, Denyhosts and APF with no problems. Ii just requires some tweaking here and there. I can’t remember everything I did to get my system working correctly but I do recall that the clamav database was looking in the wrong place so you should check your config files.
