yum-3.2.2-3.fc8

Using yum upgrade --skip-broken, I am still stopped by broken deps:

ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve:
Package boost-devel needs boost = 1.34.1-3.fc8, this is not available.
Package boost needs libicui18n.so.36, this is not available.
Package openoffice.org-core needs libicui18n.so.36, this is not available.

Package yelp needs gecko-libs = 1.8.1.5, this is not available.
Complete!

Can you reproduce this kind of error with yum-skip-broken-1.1.7 & yum-3.2.5

rpm -qa --qf '%{N}-%{V}-%{R}.%{ARCH}\n'

yum-3.2.5-4.fc8
yum-skip-broken-1.1.7-1.fc8

From "yum upgrade --skip-broken" (lots of output, hit y at prompt, then this):

Comment 4 Roland McGrath 2007-09-29 02:41:57 UTC 
Different details, but still fails to skip broken updates and soldier on when
the upgrade situation is frotzed.
Comment 5 Tim Lauridsen 2008-03-12 15:51:04 UTC 
yum >= 3.2.10 in current rawhide have much improved '--skip-broken' buildin, so
please try 

yum remove yum-skip-broken
yum install pygpgme
yum install --enablerepo=development update yum

to check it out.
