Almalinux-nvidia repository 404 errors

Support
1

I have an Alma 10.1 host on which I previously installed the NVIDIA GPU driver package, almalinux-release-nvidia-driver. This set up the almalinux-nvidia repository and installed the kmod packages, everything was working, great.

Yesterday I tried to install a package with dnf and found that the almalinux-nvidia repository mirrors are all unavailable:

# dnf update

Navigating to that URL in a browser returns the message:

'Unknown repository "nvidia". Allowed list of repositories...

I’m still seeing the same behavior today so I suspect this isn’t just a service outage. How do I fix this? Do I need to update the repository information? I haven’t been able to find any information about what changed.

I should add that I’ve already run dnf clean all and dnf makecache without success.

hello

Could you check the current repository package and repo file?

rpm -q almalinux-release-nvidia-driver
grep -nE ‘^[|mirrorlist|baseurl’ /etc/yum.repos.d/almalinux-nvidia.repo

It looks like the old repo definition may still be present.
thanks

dnf upgrade --disablerepo=almalinux-nvidia and then you can dnf upgrade normally.

You have an old copy of the repository config, which an update will fix, but the broken repository config is blocking this update for you.

Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, it appears that I’ve also got a dependency problem:

# dnf upgrade --disablerepo=almalinux-nvidia --skip-broken

(try to add '--allowerasing' to command line to replace conflicting packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

Have you ever pulled from the nvidia-supplied repo using their instructions? That seems to be what caused this.

Remove all nvidia repositories and packages, and then follow our instructions at NVIDIA Drivers | AlmaLinux Wiki and you should be good to go.
