Description Dave Botsch 2008-01-22 00:25:08 UTC
Description of problem:
Dag's EL4 repo has at least one package (vlc) built against wxGTK2.6 -- epel's
repo has a newer wxGTK - 2.8 - presumably required by packages in epel. Clearly,
this causes issues.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.8.4-4.el4.1


How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1.install wxGTK from epel (or set up both the epel and dag repos in yum)
2.try doing a 'yum install vlc'
3.failure
  
Actual results:
cannot install vlc due to epel's wxGTK being selected over the dag one

Expected results:
vlc installs

Additional info:
It would be great if you guys could coordinate w. dag (and the other repos out
there) to help avoid issues like this. While I am aware of yum plugins that
allow one to specify repo priorities (in my case, epel is a higher prioritiy
than dag due to my needing the lower versioned epel wine over the higher
versioned dag wine), clearly now I need the lower versioned dag wxGTK over the
higher versioned epel wxGTK - so, I need the priorities in both directions *sigh*

Comment 1 Dan Horák 2008-01-22 06:24:49 UTC
Sorry, but when mixing repos, you must solve the conflicts yourself. Probably an
exclude list containing wxGTK in the EPEL repo definition will workaround this
conflict.
