[...] --> Running transaction check --> Processing Dependency: libtolua++-5.1.so for package: tolua++-devel --> Processing Dependency: lua-devel >= 5.1 for package: tolua++-devel --> Processing Dependency: tolua++ = 1.0.92-3.fc5 for package: tolua++-devel --> Processing Dependency: liblua-5.1.so for package: tolua++-devel --> Restarting Dependency Resolution with new changes. --> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait. It's Yum's very own way of picking a package which satisfies these requirements "lua-devel >= 5.1 and liblua-5.1.so", $ repoquery --whatprovides liblua-5.1.so lua-0:5.1-6.fc5.i386 lua-0:5.1-5.fc5.i386 (!) $ repoquery --whatprovides lua-devel lua-devel-0:5.1-6.fc5.i386 lua-0:5.1-5.fc5.i386 (!) lua-devel-0:5.1-5.fc5.i386 instead of picking the really latest packages, which you would get after another "yum update". There are other (related) cases like this, e.g. failure to notice obsolete sub-packages: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/190116 Most convenient work-around is to get rid of the old lua in the repository. You would submit such a request via the Wiki.
