Sorry I cannot reproduce it on my VM (no customizations). What I did:
Dependencies were resolved correctly. Did you enable nethserver-testing?
With nethserver-testing enabled I get similar error with testing version. I tried it on a fresh VM (no customization). The error occurs after 7.5 install when I wanted to add the firewall-base-ui package.
Required: nethserver-firewall-base = 3.3.2-1.14.g790405e.ns7
Installed: nethserver-firewall-base-3.3.2-1.15.ga382b7d.ns7.noarch (@nethserver-base)
There’s “.noarch” missing in required package but the version of the installed package is higher than the required one.
I can confirm: This way it works.
Alpha packages are in nethserver-testing repo too… We need to (temporarily) enable it in our testing machines.
tnx! i missed it. enabled, i can confirm the problem with nethserver-firewall-ui installation is solved
the strange thing is that i am quite sure i’ve setup nsrelease as you say in first post, but when i checked it was empty 
i’ll try in a new install
edit1: ok retested on a new install.
fixed release number, checked the file (just to be sure 
)
enabled testing repo and installed nethserver,
now /etc/yum/vars/nsrelease is still there but is empty
nethserver-testing is still enabled but without rel version yum check against 7.4 repo
edit2: mhhh no there is something else… after setup /etc/yum/vars/nsrelease another time, now is again empty, i’ve just made the first installation wizard
It’s a template, could be overwritten. Echo 7.5.1804 again to it, or prepare a custom-template, like explained here: How to lock to a specific distribution release
nDPI has been reverted to release 1.1.7 because of a major issue.
You can find updated packages in nethserver-testing which should restore a correct behavior.

Note: there is no fstab-update folder…
if i install ns75 without enable testing i have the folder
/etc/e-smith/events/fstab-update/ (package installed nethserver-base-3.1.5-1.ns7.noarch)
if i use testing repo bedore install the package installed is nethserver-base-3.1.5-1.4.gba58ecc.ns7.noarch.rpm and there is no the requeste folder… i’ll check on github…
In Nethserver is available the update to 7.5. It is stable or not?
We are here in the 7.5 alpha testing thread so it’s not stable. The stable 7.5 will be announced…
Thank you for your detailed test @dz00te, it’s a great contribution towards a stable release! I hope to see more people involved in the @quality_team, expecially during transition phases like this!
I have update from Software Center, but in the Dashboard the version is 7.4. I have to reboot the server?
If want to contribute with alpha 7.5 tests run steps 3 and 4 of the initial post. Then run
yum update
Be prepared to reinstall from scratch or restore a backup/snapshot of your server.
Reboot runs the new kernel but doesn’t change the release number: you need to update from 7.5.1804/testing repo for that.
yes probably is the removed fstab management in nethserver-base
maybe nethserver-samba still use it ?
It’s possible: Samba requires Posix ACLs thus it changes the ext4 options. As ns7 has xfs it is not required any more.
Alpha 1 ISO is ready to be tested: http://www.nethserver.org/iso/nethserver-7.5.1804-alpha1-x86_64.iso
We also fixed:
tnx! downloading…
tested install on local AD + File Server and samba audit. no probs
i have some failure in log, i’ll check them better later
sssd: tkey query failed: GSSAPI error: Major = Unspecified GSS failure. Minor code may provide more information, Minor = Server not found in Kerberos database.
Ugly but not an (our) issue. If you have 5 minutes read the whole story (and the upstream bug) to find the culprit 
Great! 
First boot up looks nice with access URL but the nf_log error is still there, even after updates:
I tried to install the patch from @filippo_carletti again but no luck.
More tests will follow…
Because the fix was built after the ISO, but I backed an alpha 2 just for you: nethserver-7.5.1804-alpha2-x86_64.iso
The package inside the repositories should be good, it’s the same we are running on our production firewall.
But I will do further testing during the day.
