Hm, that's bad, but there is an easy workaround, simply do

yum install nvidia-graphics192.42

You will not get the nvidia-graphics package which takes care of
automated updates in the nvidia version (automated updates for new
kernels is taken care of by yum-plugin-kmdl).

For posterity and interested readers: The error comes from building
the package under Fedora 12 (or 11) which seems to introduce this
dependency. There are some few packages that are the same for all
distos (like this one) and they need to be built on only one
platform.

I usually pick RHEL5 and everything is compatible, but RHEL5 seems to
break on dangling symlinks which this package provides (actually
nvidia-graphics-devel provides them). I'll ask on the rpm list and see
what the best way to fix this is, but for now, please just use
nvidia-graphics192.42.
