Should have had more coffee. Another part of the problem above is "noarch" packages are put in the PPC tree for me when the i586 build occurs. This is what is driving that 3rd dependency, as perl-MDK-Common is noarch. The other 2 are due to my running out of time before I went on holiday on Jul4 and didn't get everything uploaded I had here. Now I can't upload those missing files, because they are older than the current versions. (libgcc - 0.8mdk on x86). New rpm is in the batch I'll put up today.
