If a package in RPMForge requires another package from RPMForge that
doesn't conflict with a package from Base or Updates, then the second
package will be installed.

If a package in RPMForge requires another package from RPMForge that
_does_ conflict with a package from Base or Updates, then the second
package won't be installed, and neither will the first package. That's
what's supposed to happen.

By design, CentOS is a conservative and stable distribution. If you
need the latest packages, CentOS isn't the right distribution for you.
