Success!

Steps to reproduce it

Standard rhel-atomic-host vm in AWS upgraded to 7.5.2 and I'm trying to install audit daemon and it fails with the error some base packages would be replaced.

Would you like to work on the issue?

Please let us know if you can work on it or the issue should be assigned to
someone else.

If it can be assigned to someone that would be great. thanks.

Right, this is a dupe of #415 though for RHELAH. It's trying to overlay 7.6 RPMs on top of 7.5. Upgrading to 7.6 first should work. Or if you need to stay on 7.5 for now, you can try rpm-ostree install audit-2.8.1-3.el7 though this will have to be undone once you finally upgrade to 7.6.
