In case it isn't already on your list I'm seeing something odd with dbus,
on a fresh install of sl53 on x86_64 I seem to get an old version of
dbus.i386 because the latest version (which seems to be in the x86_64
tree) clashes over a config file...
This doesn't make sense to me. Where are you getting an "old" version of
dbus? They are both the same in the x86_64 directory
x86_64/SL/dbus-1.1.2-12.el5.i386.rpm

The installer doesn't just find some random old version of dbus from
somewhere.
Well it seems that my mirror is broken atm, since we also have
dbus-1.0.0-7* versions in the sl53 tree.

I don't normally run my rsync with --delete (to avoid the problem with it
deleting hundereds of items and then needing to fetching them again) so
those may be left over from when I copied junk from 5rolling at some
point. I'll refresh that shortly... Yup that got rid of them:

Apologies for the noise.
In fact I'm also (probably wrongly!) still pointing my test sl53 installs
at a local repo that has all the 52 security updates added into it... So
I actually get dbus-1.0.0-7.el5_2.1.i386 pulled in from that repo...

but that I'll hopefully manage to fix soon...
I'm still not quite sure what will happen to dbus.i386 on an upgrade from
52 to 53 (on x86_64) but maybe something I don't understand will pull in
dbus-libs.i386 and dbus-glib.i386 and remove dbus.i386
