Taking perl(Archive:Zip) as an example: This dependency is provided by perl-Archive-Zip package. RHN says that this package is part of the 'RHEL Server Optional' channel for RHEL 6. Do you have that channel enabled? Name Channel perl-Archive-Zip-1.16-1.2.1.noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 64-bit x86_64) perl-Archive-Zip-1.16-1.2.1.noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 64-bit Itanium) perl-Archive-Zip-1.16-1.2.1.noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 64-bit IBM POWER) perl-Archive-Zip-1.16-1.2.1.noarch Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) perl-Archive-Zip-1.30-2.el6.noarch RHEL Server Optional (v. 6 for 32-bit x86) perl-Archive-Zip-1.30-2.el6.noarch RHEL Server Optional (v. 6 64-bit x86_64) perl-Archive-Zip-1.16-1.2.1.noarch RHEL Optional Productivity Apps (v. 5 for 64-bit x86_64) perl-Archive-Zip-1.16-1.2.1.noarch RHEL Optional Productivity Apps (v. 5 for 32-bit x86) Yes, enabling channel 'RHEL Server Optional' indeed fixed my problem, thanks! This 'bug' can be closed. |
