Problem installing a modified rpm

Question

I modified the rpm package and it worked but when I tried to install it via rpm I encountered this problem

[root@vps8865 ~]# cd rpmbuild/

Answer 1

Your package is ...2.32.2-65.el7.1... and the installed packages are ...2.32.2-65.el7_9.1.... By the same version numbers, they probably come form the same source package, and presumably so should yours.

Perhaps you missed to update some version in the spec file, or your dist macro is off (i.e., it reads el7.1 when it should be el7_9.1. In any case, at least the release (here 65) should be later than the upstream one, in order to avoid RPM database confusion (distribution package has the same version+release as the local, different, installed one is sure to make for entertaining fireworks later on).

Answer 2

You either downloaded an older source rpm or have not applied the needed patches. Start with searching for a newer source rpm than the one you have.
