I have a CentOS 6 machine that I want to install npm on. Whenever I do a normal yum install npm I get an error saying that I need to install krb5-devel which doesn't show up on yum search so I downloaded the RPM file and tried to install it manually which in turn shows an error because I need to install libcom_err-devel.
This is where the problem actually begins, I downloaded this RPM package and tried to install it but it then shows this error:
Error: Package: libcom_err-devel-1.41.12-18.el6.x86_64 (/libcom_err-devel-1.41.12-18.el6.x86_64)
Requires: libcom_err = 1.41.12-18.el6
Installed: libcom_err-1.41.12-14.el6_4.4.x86_64 (@updates)
libcom_err = 1.41.12-14.el6_4.4
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
I have no idea how to fix this. It shows that it needs libcom_err but it's already installed.
