I actually ran 'yum install update' and 'yum install upgrade' after adding that the CentOS 5 rpmforge (instead of the CentOS 5 rpmforge).
really, you should only run 'yum update' or 'yum upgrade'. You're mixing yum commands when you tell it to install and update. This may have worked in your favor for now however, as both commands would attempt to install a package named update and upgrade respectively.
Is there any unscrambling these eggs?
run the following command: rpm -qa | grep el5 to see what el5 packages you have installed. There shouldn't be many more than the rpmforge-release package itself. If there aren't any critical ones (If you're not sure, feel free to put the list here and we'll tell you), then you can remove them with rpm -e package-name (you don't need to include the version, just the name of the package). After that it's a simple matter of installing the proper rpmforge-release package (for el4) and then installing from there. -- During times of universal deceit, telling the truth becomes a revolutionary act.
