Issue
Cause
This error comes due to new gdb package is not compatible with the old one.
Resolution
1. First install all the packages which were not dependent on 'gdb ' by command "yum update --skip-broken"
2. After that remove old gdb package installed by "yum remove gdb"
3. From SA server (central repository), Copy required package gdb-7.2-64.el6_5.2.x86_64.rpm and gdbm-devel-1.8.0-36.el6.x86_64.rpm in appliance's root
4. Run "yum install gdb" to install both rpms.
5. Verify installed gdb rpms using "rpm -qa|grep gdb" command. This command results both gdb-7.2-64.el6_5.2.x86_64.rpm and gdbm-devel-1.8.0-36.el6.x86_64.rpm.
