The second one is the most important as its dependencies include evolution, gnucash, and seven or eight other programs. Below I manually install the proper glib-devel package for rh9 (for glib-1.2.10-10), but apt chokes over it saying "glib (= 1.2.10) but 1:1.2.10-10 is installed". Apt's only suggestion in this situation is to remove glib-devel and gdk-pixbuf-devel, which is not what I want. And these same packages were fine yesterday. How do I tell apt that 1.2.10-10 = 1.2.10?
