Hi Devrim,

I have a Red Hat EL 6 x86_64 system subscribed to the 9.5 PGDG repo,
and have lost the ability with yum to update the OS. Yum reports:

-----
Error: Package: 1:nfs-utils-1.2.3-64.el6.x86_64 (@rhel-x86_64-server-6)

This seems very much as if it could be the same issue you described
above regarding the 9.4 repo. Is there a compat-libevent14 RPM that
needs to be included in the 9.5 repo for rhel6 so that updates
can succeed?

I have tried 'yum clean expire-cache' and retried the update, in
case compat-libevent had been recently pushed, but got the same
result.  Do I need to try a more aggressive flavor of yum clean?

Thanks,
