I keep getting the following error whenever I do a dnf update -y or try to install a package. I'm using CentOS 8 as a virtual machine. Can you tell me why this is happening?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/site-packages/libdnf/common_types.py", line 14, in swig_import_helper
    return importlib.import_module(mname)
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.6/importlib/__init__.py", line 126, in import_module
    return _bootstrap._gcd_import(name[level:], package, level)
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 994, in _gcd_import
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 971, in _find_and_load
  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 955, in _find_and_load_unlocked

  File "<frozen importlib._bootstrap>", line 219, in _call_with_frames_removed
ImportError: libyaml-0.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

  • Restore the deleted file from backup. – Michael Hampton Sep 21 '20 at 06:20
  • there are no deleted files, this is a fresh CentOS install. not sure what you're looking at here. – ninsonTan Sep 21 '20 at 06:25
  • Someone deleted this file. `ImportError: libyaml-0.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory` – Michael Hampton Sep 21 '20 at 12:59
  • downloaded the file and installed it manually and it works. `curl -o /tmp/libyaml-0.1.7-5.el8.x86_64.rpm 'http://mirror.centos.org/centos/8/BaseOS/x86_64/os/Packages/libyaml-0.1.7-5.el8.x86_64.rpm' ` `sudo rpm -i libyaml-0.1.7-5.el8.x86_64.rpm ` – ninsonTan Sep 21 '20 at 20:11
