I am having a issue while doing a yum update
I am using Centos 5.2 and yum details are as follows
3.2.19

It gives
ffmpeg-20081216-1.i386 from installed has depsolving problemsThe packages ffmpeg and lam-398 were custom compiled with some modifications.

These packages with the modification are in use for a live site hosted on the machine.
I also did a --exclude=lame* --exclude=ffmpeg* but it gives the same error while yum updating (even tried excluding in yum.conf).
I did a google search, which told that i should rpm -e --nodeps the conflicting package?
Since, that cannot be done can anyone suggest a workaround for updating Centos using yum?
