Description Michael Schwendt 2007-07-06 11:07:15 UTC 
perl-XML-Twig provides perl(XML::XPathEngine::NodeSet)
perl-XML-XPathEngine provides perl(XML::XPathEngine::NodeSet)
  required by: perl-XML-XPathEngine - 0.08-1.fc7.noarch

Indeed:

$ sudo yum install 'perl(XML::XPathEngine::NodeSet)'

does not install perl-XML-XPathEngine, but perl-XML-Twig.

Comment 1 Robin Norwood 2007-07-08 04:35:01 UTC 
Yep, this Provides is bogus.  XML::Twig does some funny business overriding
methods in XML::XPathEngine::Nodeset, which confuses rpm.

fixed in perl-XML-Twig-3.29-4.fc8

Thanks, good to hear that the problem isn't with the perl-XML-XPathEngine
package... ;)
