Hi,
I'm currently trying to build the package cegui, which succeeds for
devel, but fails on fc4 and fc5. cegui depends on tolua++-devel, which
in turn depends on lua-devel. The problem is, that mock is installing an
older version of lua (5.1-5) which provides lua-devel in the main
package, even though lua-devel was provided as a seperate RPM. This
problem was fixed in version lua 5.1-6 which has been available for
about a week.

http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/logs/fedora-5-extras/10943-cegui-0.4.1-8.fc5/i386/
Question is, what's the best way to deal with this?

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. See
the Repository Status pages in the middle of:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras
The request to have the older offending package removed has been requested.
