I'm not sure if this is a problem with my setup or with the
repository. Running yum list shows two different versions of perl-
DateTime-TimeZone:
perl-DateTime-TimeZone.i386
0.46-1.el5.rf rpmforge
perl-DateTime-TimeZone.noarch
0.8301-1.el5.rf rpmforge
When I run yum install perl-DateTime yum will pull perl-DateTime-
TimeZone 0.46 as a dependency instead of 0.8301. Everything installs
without complaints but when trying to use DateTime from perl I get the
following error message:
[etroc...@localhost ~]$ perl -e "use DateTime;"
DateTime::TimeZone version 0.59 required--this is only version 0.46
at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/
DateTime.pm line 47.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/
i386-linux-thread-multi/DateTime.pm line 47.
Compilation failed in require at -e line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.
Explicitly installing perl-DateTime-TimeZone version .083 fixes the
problem.
Why is yum not pulling the latest version of the package? Also,
shouldn't perl-DateTime have an explicit dependency on perl-DateTime-
TimeZone >= 0.59?
