migrate2rocky.sh: Can't get package that provides system-logos-ipa.

[rosswmerrifield]

I am trying to convert my laptop from Red Hat 8.5 to Rocky. I tried running the migrate2rocky.sh script, but it fails with the following (this is the entire content of /var/log/migrate2rocky.log):

Can't get package that provides system-logos-ipa.

An error occurred while we were attempting to convert your system to Rocky Linux. Your system may be unstable. Script will now exit to prevent possible damage.

Maybe it has to do with the fact that my Red Hat license is currently expired, so I can't connect to the Red Hat repos at the moment?

Thanks,

Ross

It would certainly be the case. migrate2rocky requires access to the source distros repos. I would recommend getting a free devsub and subscribing your current RHEL under that, then you will be able to migrate.

I might look into seeing if there's a way to make the migration work without access to the original repos as this could help with CentOS 8 migrations after the repos move to vault as well.

Did you find any resolution to this issue? I get the same error trying to migrate from CentOS8 and the repositories are still accessible.

You're missing appstream (among other repos).

Show the entire /var/log/migrate2rocky.log file, please.

[5zero7rc]

Thanks, I had disabled the appstream repo due to a graphviz update issue. And unfortunately I can remove graphviz because check-mk depends on graphviz-gd and check-mk is the primary service this server provides.

Seems like I may be stuck in a catch 22 or something.

Do you have graphviz-gd excluded or something? Why? It should be able to update both graphviz and graphviz-gd without issue.

[5zero7rc]

Nope, no exclusion that I know about.

Seems like I will need to keep working on that and get this issue cleared up before I can migrate to Rocky.

[5zero7rc]

Thanks for the help. Got it figured out. I had to enable the CentOS-Linux-PowerTools.repo ( not sure why it got disabled ). After enabling that I was able to get graphviz and graphviz-gd all sorted out.
