I had a perfectly working CentOS 7. Then, while installing some programs (and unfortunately I am unable to backtrace it) it seems the xorg and xorgxrdp conflicted with some RHEL repository and I couldn't update xrdp/xorgxrdp.

Then, on this site, I luckily found a way to go around it and performed the following steps to get the xrdp working again. 

sudo yum -y install https://archive.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/epel/7/x86_64/Packages/x/xorgxrdp-0.2.9-1.el7.x86_64.rpm

sudo yum install xrdp

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable xrdp
sudo systemctl start xrdp

Now, even though my RDP session from Win to Linux works, the bigger problem remains which is that I am unable to update. How do I go around fixing this?

Pls see the error below:

sudo yum update

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Can someone please help me in fixing this? from what I am reading, it seems the RHEL 7.6 is conflicting with another version? However, I do have EPEL enabled.

    This is exactly the same issue as in the linked question, and exactly the same answer applies to you. – Michael Hampton Aug 26 '19 at 19:15
  • Mike, that only applies to xrdp. However, at this point, I am unable to update the machine period. The reply suggests how to get around for the xrdp install (which I used and successfully did), however, the system update is a no go. I am 1 day old here, so I apologize if I am not looking at the right reply. – uhsa Aug 26 '19 at 19:21
  • You mean xorgxrdp? The issue is still the same. Nothing has changed. You could use `--skip-broken` as suggested to skip the packages until CentOS 7.7 is available. – Michael Hampton Aug 26 '19 at 19:58
