Python-backports-ssl_match_hostname package / DPI Kernel support

Support
,
#1

NethServer Version: NethServer release 7.5.1804 (final)
Module: your_module

Hi NS community,
I have updated my NS distribution to 7.5 release and I found a problem with python-backports-ssl_match_hostname package. I tried several times to install the package but every time I update the software center page it reappears.

Furthermore, it tells me that the DPI package is not available and advises to reboot the system and select the kernel that supports DPI.

NethServer release 7.5.1804 (final)
3.10.0-693.21.1.el7.x86_64

Can someone give me some suggestions?

Thanks,
Pasquale

Update to 7.5 release - Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) module is not available
#2

Tested the updates without problem. Current (up to date) packages on a test system:

kernel: 3.10.0-862.3.2.el7.x86_64
python-backports-1.0-8.el7.x86_64
python-backports-ssl_match_hostname-3.5.0.1-1.el7.noarch

Do you have logs of the errors?

I confirm that the problem is that indicated in the RedHat community,
the solution should be on this page but is only accessible to users who have a subscription. :disappointed_relieved:

Try this:

rm -rf /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/backports.ssl_match_hostname-3.*

yum reinstall python-backports-ssl_match_hostname did not work:

Installed package python-backports-ssl_match_hostname-3.4.0.2-4.el7.noarch (from anaconda) not available.

yum update seems to have solved:
