> python-pyasn1.noarch 0:0.1.8-2.el7 tzdata.noarch 0:2016a-1.el7
> tzdata-java.noarch 0:2016a-1.el7

> After that, I reran your script, and it appears to work. I received

> I tried the keypair add command after updating, and it didn't work.
> Then, I rebooted, and now it looks like it works!

> I guess it must have been a not updated package!
