Yum update failed

My Nextcloud instance is on CentOS7 and has been since it was ownCloud 7.
It has been updating my fine until today.
Failed to check for updates with the following error message: Failed to build transaction: selinux-policy-3.13.1-192.el7_5.3.noarch requires policycoreutils >= 2.5-18 kernel-3.10.0-862.2.3.el7.x86_64 requires linux-firmware >= 20180113-61 selinux-policy-targeted-3.13.1-192.el7_5.3.noarch requires policycoreutils >= 2.5-18 -
I just completed updates this morning on a centos 7 system here (snipe-it) and encountered no issues.
Are you seeing this on other systems as well?
-
I've only updated a few, but not run into that yet. Did run into a Mongo DB third party repo issue, but that's not super surprising.
-
No issue for me.
-
Isn't this the second time you have had issues with yum? I believe I have had this before and iirc I had to make sure my kernel was up to date. Don't hold me to that.

The Google says you are the first person to have this issue
Congrats.

Back at my desk now, I rebooted the instance first and then manually ran

Have you tried getting linux-firmware manually and installing it first?
https://pkgs.org/download/linux-firmware
or
https://centos.pkgs.org/7/centos-x86_64/linux-firmware-20180220-62.git6d51311.el7.noarch.rpm.html -
I was able to correct this on a few of my instances that were having issues by running:
yum clean all
rm -rf /var/cache/yumand then attempting the update again.
I think the cause of this was initially having a network connectivity issue on my end, so this may not help everyone, but worth a shot?

I did that this morning right after I posted. Same result.
Then I did
--skip-broken.I just did it again and now there are 230 updates and no conflicts.

I have 4 CentOS 7 servers at this location that I want to migrate to Fedora, just not high on my priority list.

But a little higher on that list now
I truly find fedora updates more reliable than CentOS ones.

Can you upgrade to policycoreutils >= 2.5-18?
-
@obsolesce it ran this afternoon. I noted that.
