Hmmm, it looks like a problem in how yum resolves obsoletes/provides. I will get exactly this when I try to install emacs-auctex, but if I do: yum install dvipng -y then texlive-dvipng and texlive-dvipng-bin get successfully installed. Then installation of emacs-auctex runs without problems. So it seems like yum has a hard time to resolve both installation of emacs-auctex and obsoletion of dvipng in one transaction even though emacs-auctex contains unversioned Requires: to dvipng and texlive-dvipng should successfully obsolete it.
