I am a newbie and do not know as much in detail abt packages. However, I noticed something strange while installing gcc. I started with bare minimum 'no-base' install with a kickstart file, so I didn't have gcc in it. Later, when I installed gcc the 'kernel-headers' packages was marked to be updated to 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 for dependency issues.
Here is a summary: ============================================================================= Package Arch Version Repository Size ============================================================================= Installing: gcc i386 4.1.2-44.el5 base 5.2 M Updating: glibc i686 2.5-34 base 5.2 M glibc-common i386 2.5-34 base 16 M libgcc i386 4.1.2-44.el5 base 94 k
Installing for dependencies: binutils i386 2.17.50.0.6-9.el5 base 2.9 M cpp i386 4.1.2-44.el5 base 2.7 M glibc-devel i386 2.5-34 base 2.0 M glibc-headers i386 2.5-34 base 598 k kernel-headers i386 2.6.18-128.1.10.el5 updates 917 k libgomp i386 4.3.2-7.el5 base 67 k
However, the kernel is 2.6.18-92.el5. The mismatch in kernel and kernel-headers is confusing me. Any insights?
Thanks, CS.

I am trying to build a Lustre file system over CentOS. The file system server's kernel needs to be lustrized, however client can be installed without altering kernel. I was struggling with client installation and thought specific kernel requirement might be an issue. I am stil not sure why is it failing though... Anyway, to cut it short, needed for some dependency issues..
looks like Lustre has very specific kernel requirements, see http://wiki.lustre.org/index.php/Lustre_Support_Matrix
eg, Lustre 1.8.0 -must- be run with kernel 2.6.18-92.1.17.el5 and not, for example, 2.6.18-92.1.18.el5
