Make the dependencies more specific. Add dependencies on package names and/or specific versions. Use RPM to examine the package's current "Requires" (both the automatically added ones as well as manually added ones) and the PHP package's "Provides". If multiple packages provide the same thing, Yum assumes that either one can be used to resolve a dependency. -- Fedora release 17 (Beefy Miracle) - Linux 3.5.3-1.fc17.x86_64 loadavg: 0.34 0.50 0.22 -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
