Hi all,

I'm trying to install rrdtool on CentOS 5.3 x64, but it keeps failing
with dependency problems:



root@pluto:[~]$ yum install rrdtool*

 * freshrpms: ayo.uk3.freshrpms.net
 * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de

There are unfinished transactions remaining. You mightconsider running
yum-complete-transaction first to finish them.

So, from what I gather, there's dependency problems, but shouldn't
these be resolved automatically? I have googled this a bit, and it
seems a lot of people end up installing a the tar ball manually -
which I don't want todo. So, does anyone know how to install the RPM
successful?
