From: Dan Carl danc@bluestarshows.com Subject: [CentOS] Yum update conflicts perl-Math-BigInt To: "CentOS mailing list" centos@centos.org Date: Friday, January 30, 2009, 1:13 PM I followed the Wiki instructions for setting up *yum-priorities*. I added the rpmforge repo I installed clamd without a problem. Now when I go to update I get conflicts with perl-Math-BigInt.
Is the only solution to uninstall the base version and then install the rpmforge version?
Take a deep breath there... the base version is Perl itself - Math::BigInt is a core module in C5.
I would like to know why the developers of Clamd feel the need to use the latest perl-Math-BigInt? Try checking your /var/log/yum.log to see if this RPM was installed coincident with Clamd. Perhaps you can exclude it somehow.
