<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi,</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Can someone explain to me why my centos-5.0
repository has the following two rpm packages in the base repository, causing
errors when running 'yum update', since it can't find the right
dependencies? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here's the content of my repository for
centos5. Shouldn't hal-0.5.8.1-25 and gcc-4.1.2-14 belong in the 5.1
repository? I compared it to <A
href="http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.0/os/i386/CentOS/">http://mirror.centos.org/centos-5/5.0/os/i386/CentOS/</A> repository
and it doesn't have the later versions of those two packages. So why does
my 5.0 repository have the following two packages timestamped Nov.
20?</DIV></FONT>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Again, it's causing an error when runinng yum
update because it's trying to update hal, and it can't find its dependcies since
they're all located in the 5.1 repository. The client is a 5.0
box.</FONT></DIV>
