[users] dependencies perl-Image-ExifTool / php-pear-db / perl-TermReadKey

[Jelmer Jellema - Spin in het Web Webruimte]

Hi all,

 

I just subscribed to this list because of some problems I had with using
rpmforge and yum on centos 5. I think the rpmforge project is great, this is
the first time I really feel like working more with rpms etc and less with
./configure --prefix=.. Etc. (though I am starting to learn the ins and outs
of rpmbuild). 

 

Anyhow. Today I typed 'yum update' on centos 5 and got some problems with 3
packages:

 

Perl-TermReadKey: would not update. After some trying I managed to install
it using 'yum install perl-TermReadKey', which deleted perm-Term-ReadKey. So
far so good.

 

Next one is php-pear-db: this has been bugging the 'yum update' command (and
the yumex tool as well) for a while, probably because of the existance of
php-pear-DB in the centos repos.

There must be something I do not understand properly, because 'yum update'
mentions this one, but 'yum update php-pear-db.noarch' cannot find an update
match, even with --noplugins et cetera.

Using install instead of update gives :

 

Transaction Check Error:

  file /usr/share/pear/.channels/__uri.reg from install of
php-pear-db-1.7.13-1.el5.rf conflicts with file from package
php-pear-1.4.9-4

  file /usr/share/pear/.channels/pear.php.net.reg from install of
php-pear-db-1.7.13-1.el5.rf conflicts with file from package
php-pear-1.4.9-4

  file /usr/share/pear/.channels/pecl.php.net.reg from install of
php-pear-db-1.7.13-1.el5.rf conflicts with file from package
php-pear-1.4.9-4

  file /usr/share/pear/.depdb from install of php-pear-db-1.7.13-1.el5.rf
conflicts with file from package php-pear-1.4.9-4

 

So, I don't know whose problem this is (or more: whose solution we need).

 

Finally perl-Image-ExifTool. This gives:

 

Error: Missing Dependency: perl(a) is needed by package perl-Image-ExifTool

 

That just looks like something that should be changed in the .spec? Maybe I
am missing something here too.

 

For your information. Maybe someone can enlighten me / us.
