We were attempting to upgrade from PHP 5.4 to PHP 7.0 or 7.1 on CentOS 7. We were following How to install or upgrade to PHP 7 on CentOS 7 Linux Server. The update failed so we want to back-out all the changes for Remi-Safe. It failed at the dependency stage due to broken dependencies, so nothing was installed.
We added the PHP 7.x Remi-Safe repos with the following commands:
$ mkdir php-up && cd php-up
$ wget -q http://rpms.remirepo.net/enterprise/remi-release-7.rpm
$ wget -q https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
$ rpm -Uvh remi-release-7.rpm
$ rpm -Uvh epel-release-latest-7.noarch.rpm
According to YUM Remove Repo (Repository) – YUM Disable Repo (Repository) there is no way to undo rpm -Uvh <repo> from the command line.
Examining /etc/yum.repos.d we have several Remi-Safe artifacts, including stuff we don't believe we installed:
# ls
CentOS-Base.repo CentOS-Media.repo epel-testing.repo remi-php72.repo
CentOS-CR.repo CentOS-Sources.repo remi-php54.repo remi.repo
CentOS-Debuginfo.repo CentOS-Vault.repo remi-php70.repo remi-safe.repo
CentOS-fasttrack.repo epel.repo remi-php71.repo vz.repo
The thing that is confusing me is repos like remi-php54.repo. I don't believe we installed it so I'm not sure if we have business removing it.
My question is, can we rf -f remi-* and get back to our original state? Or do we need to do something else here?
