I've had similar problems at times for different packages. I've always been able to solve the problem by removing the packages off my system, and then installing the new version afterward (instead of updating). But in this case, I'm not sure if that would break Oscar or not :/
Try using the 'provides' option in yum (ie: "yum provides librrd.so") to see if the repo you have Yum configured to use has the right version of the package available. I don't current have a RHEL box I could play with to check, but I can see on my Fedora box those packages are in the 'Fedora-Extra' Repo, which is not usually mirrored to your local Oscar repository. -Milo -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Edwards Sent: Monday, May 14, 2007 11:28 AM To: oscar users Subject: [Oscar-users] silly yum question So I set up yum (using RPMforge since it supports RHEL) in order to update my cluster using yume, and I am getting this error. Well, ok, its not an error, it is a dependency I am not sure how to resolve without breaking ganglia... Any thoughts? I am not extremely familiar with yum , but it doesn't seem to have a lot of "override" options like rpm itself does, if doing such a thing is a good idea anyway.
