Hi,

I have not encountered any issue since CentOS 5.0 while using yum update.
In the latest update, I hit the following error message while updating:

Transaction Check Error:
file /etc/aliases from install of setup-2.5.58-9.el5.noarch conflicts with file from package da_exim-4.69-1.x86_64

Does anyone hit the same problem as well? Any possible solution?

Thank you!
 
Remove that package then or put it on exclude.
 
Sorry, but is Google blocked either in your country or by your ISP? The subject gets apprised with every single release of CentOS.

No need to be that picky to somebody asking a perfectly valid question. Google actually took me to this very thread as I had the same problem.
As for myself this is the first time I encountered this problem during my 4 years with CentOS.
 
Yes, I know that the issue does not come every time and to everybody. Some servers I support has the issue, the others don't. For now I can't determine the reason of such a thing.
