RPM is telling you is that upgrading ghc would break an existing
dependency among your installed packages. Namely, ghc-prof (GHC
profiling support) is also installed on your computer and depends on
ghc-4.08-1. Thus, you have two common options:
(1) upgrade both ghc and ghc-prof at the same time:
rpm -Uhv ghc-5.00.2-rh62-1.i386.rpm ghc-prof-5.00.2-rh62-1.i386.rpm
(2) or, remove ghc-prof (eliminating the dependency) before upgrading:
rpm -e ghc-prof
rpm -Uhv ghc-5.00.2-rh62-1.i386.rpm
Go with (1) if you want profiling support in your GHC installation; (2)
otherwise.
Let me know if neither of these work for you.
Cheers,
Tom
