Unable to update packages

Packages update fails on Centos Stream 8 because of this:

Error:
Problem: cannot install both epel-release-8-14.el8.noarch and epel-release-8-13.el8.noarch
  - package epel-next-release-8-14.el8.noarch requires epel-release = 8-14.el8, but none of the providers can be installed
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package epel-release-8-13.el8.noarch
  - cannot install the best update candidate for package epel-next-release-8-13.el8.noarch

Any help?

did you try this

Code Select Expand

yum install https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-8.noarch.rpm

Thank you for your reply. Tried that with similar result:

Code Select Expand


Error:
Problem: problem with installed package epel-next-release-8-13.el8.noarch
  - package epel-next-release-8-13.el8.noarch requires epel-release = 8-13.el8, but none of the providers can be installed
  - package epel-next-release-8-11.el8.noarch requires epel-release = 8-11.el8, but none of the providers can be installed
  - cannot install both epel-release-8-14.el8.noarch and epel-release-8-13.el8.noarch
  - cannot install both epel-release-8-14.el8.noarch and epel-release-8-11.el8.noarch
  - conflicting requests
(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Well, epel-release-8-14.el8 release fixed it. Problem solved.
