[Yum] Yum Dependency Resolution algorithm clarification

[pauwel.coppieters at tiscali.be (Pauwel Coppieters)]

Hello,
        
        I have some trouble understanding how dependency resolution
        works in
        yum (2.6.1).
        
        There is on my system an old version of transcode I would like
        to
        update. A newer version from RPMForge has a dependency on
        libpostproc.so.0.0.1

        There is no package that provides libpostproc.so.0.0.1. However
        a
        local package is installed that provides libpostproc.so.0.0.1

        Eventually, yum fails to update transcode (see below). Is this
        intended behaviour, or should this work. If so, any directions
        as
        where to change in the source ?
