Same results.

Same results.



So... I could remove perl and kdevelop and reinstall, but my experience
with yum removing packages is not good. It usually wants to remove too
much. Also, if I remove perl and reinstall, will it break existing perl
scripts?

How do I fix yum so that it will recognize a package that it says is installed,
but doesn't remember that when it is needed for an update?

Sometimes yum seems demented.
