Hi all,

I've looking for list archives but I didn't find the link. Sorry in
advance if someone already asked about this.


I find some strange dependency resolution on our nodes (sl5.3).
When I try to install numpy I get the error:

#yum -y install numpy
[...]
Package numpy is obsoleted by python-numeric, trying to install
python-numeric-23.1-0.2.el5.rf.x86_64 instead Package matching

Hmm. I have a newer python-numeric (not python-numpy):

# rpmquery -i python-numeric

I see that your package python-numeric-23.1-0.2.el5.rf.x86_64
has rf in the releae. Is it from rpmforge ?
