I've installed the rpmfusion free and non-free noarch rpms to my F12b 64-bit test system. Those both depend on the epel noarch rpm, and therein lies an odd problem:
# yum -y update --skip-broken Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-x86_64 0:2.020-1.el5 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8) for package: perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.020-1.el5-x86_64 --> Finished Dependency Resolution perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.020-1.el5.x86_64 from epel has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8) is needed by package perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.020-1.el5.x86_64 (epel)
Packages skipped because of dependency problems: perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.020-1.el5.x86_64 from epel
Searching my downloads I spotted something very odd:
F12 Everything perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.008-82.fc12.x86_64.rpm F13 Rawhide perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.008-84.fc13.x86_64.rpm EPEL 5 perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib-2.020-1.el5.x86_64.rpm
EPEL appears to have a newer version number than either F12 Everything or F13 Rawhide, but the date of that 2.020-1 file is July 1, 2009.
How can this be reconciled???

You downloaded the wrong packages (ones for enterprise linux instead of Fedora). Remove them and get the right release packages from

Rahul & Seth,
You were both right. I did grab the wrong packages last week. It's been fun, but I've obviously been spending way too much time getting ready for F12. I think I'll pack it in tonight and grab the general release in the morning.
Thanks a bunch.

why are you using epel and fedora together?
epel is for centos or rhel not for fedora.

Seth,
Not my choice. The epel repo rpm gets installed as a dependency by the rpmfusion repo rpms.
I think you grabbed the wrong rpmfusion repo pkg.
if not - then this is an rpmfusion bug and should be sent to them.
thanks, -sv
