Description Kalev Lember 2011-05-02 18:46:33 UTC
nss_ldap currently has a file dependency on /%{_lib}/security/pam_ldap.so, which makes yum depsolver download the whole filelists database for upgrades. Please replace the file dependency with a dependency on pam_ldap package instead.

See the following link for more information why file dependencies outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, or /usr/sbin directories are considered undesirable:
