I'm trying to install winswitch
on CentOs 6. It requires nxagent
. But in centos, the package name is nx
. Is there a way to tell yum to skip checking the nxagent
dependency (I installed nx
already)? Specifying --skip-broken
skips the whole thing.

Best Answer
Generally
yum
doesn't have options to ignore a single package from the dependencies. Option--skip-broken
ignores all unresolved dependences.You can try
yum --exclude=packagename
but it excludes a specific package by name or glob from updates on all repositories, not from dependencies.
