The only way to get a conflict is if oprofile is from an earlier release since FC5 comes with oprofile-0.9.1-8. What version of oprofile do you have installed? Are you trying to do an upgrade between releases? I would suggest doing a "yum update" to bring everything up-to-date. Alternatively, remove oprofile, update the kernel, and reinstall oprofile with the new version. - Ian
