If someone has issues with dependencies and especially the elastic repo, my recommendation is to download the elasticsearch-oss package from the elastic homepage.  
Reason for this is because every time I’m doing an installation/upgrade I have issues with getting older versions from the original elastic repo that are required for ODFE.

```bash
# yum list elasticsearch-oss-7.2.1-1
Loaded plugins: langpacks, rhnplugin, versionlock
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite.
Available Packages
elasticsearch-oss.x86_64 7.2.1-1 elasticsearch-7.x

```

```bash
# yum install elasticsearch-oss-7.2.1-1
Loaded plugins: langpacks, rhnplugin, versionlock
This system is receiving updates from RHN Classic or Red Hat Satellite.
Nothing to do

```

(no version lock or exclude configured)

So, in case for opendistro 1.2.1 my steps are:

1. go to [Elasticsearch OSS 7.2.1 | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/downloads/past-releases/elasticsearch-oss-7-2-1) and download rpm package

```auto
elasticsearch-oss-7.2.1-x86_64.rpm

```

1. install local package via yum `yum install elasticsearch-oss-7.2.1-x86_64.rpm`
2. from the opendistro repo the rest works as intended, but I tend to specify depended versions \*\*\*

```auto
yum install opendistroforelasticsearch-1.2.1 opendistro-sql-1.2.1.0 opendistro-security-1.2.1.0 opendistroforelasticsearch-kibana-1.2.1

```

\*\*\* might differ for other version/sub-version, pls. verify version manually, inn case this post is outdated

regards,  
nean
