Just look at this, how yum is stuggling: --> Processing Dependency: rpm = 4.4.1-22 for package: rpm-python --> Processing Dependency: libselinux-devel for package: rpm-devel --> Processing Dependency: libstdc++-devel = 4.0.1-4.fc4 for package: gcc-c++ --> Processing Dependency: perl-DBD-MySQL for package: mysql-server --> Processing Dependency: gcc = 4.0.0 for package: apr-devel --> Processing Dependency: apr-util-devel for package: httpd-devel --> Processing Dependency: rpm = 4.4.1-22 for package: rpm-devel --> Processing Dependency: libstdc++ = 4.0.1-4.fc4 for package: gcc-c++ --> Processing Dependency: pcre = 5.0-4 for package: pcre-devel --> Processing Dependency: neon-devel for package: rpm-devel --> Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes. --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.
