Description

Lustre RPM needs to be updated to explicitly list all it's dependencies. Currently, the RPM package does not list net-snmp-libs as a dependency, and in the absence of a correctly configured yum repository, the installation fails.

The errors point to individual files (libnetsnmp.so.20()(64bit), libnetsnmpagent.so.20()(64bit), libnetsnmphelpers.so.20()(64bit), libnetsnmpmibs.so.20()(64bit)) instead of the actual package (net-snmp-libs-5.5-49.el6.x86_64). Users must be given more useful messages about missing dependencies.
