Hi,
Well, it looks like I'm going to have to put out a version of yum with the
"versionfix" plugin for SL5. In summary, rpm is picking newer and older
package names different than I expected.
According to rpm
<name>-1.el5.1 is newer than <name>-1.el5_x.1
which is backwards from what I was thought. So all the checks that I did
when looking for poorly named rpms in SL5, ... well ... I need to recheck
them.
Anyway, expect a fix next week. I'm sorry about this.
Troy
An EVR comparison tool may be handy when checking which is
newer/older. I use fedora-rpmvercmp in rpmdevtools (EPEL repo).

I will give it a shot. Because already I have found exceptions to what I just
said above.
Thanks
Troy
