Foe a while now, yum update has been failing on the perl-gettext
package with:

Transaction Check Error:
  file /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Locale/gettext/gettext.so from install of perl-gettext-1.05-1.el5.rf conflicts with file from package perl-Locale-gettext-1.05-1.el5.rf

Can anyone give me any advice in how to solve this?

Full output follows:

A:  Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q:  Why is top-posting a bad thing?
