I have a package installed with CentOS which is called "glib-1.2.10-15". I want now to install a software (not available with CentOS) which requires glib >= 2.0.
Simply installing glib2, as suggested, won't work.
The package has a specific rpm requirement for the package named glib.
In a nutshell, if you want to keep your CentOS whole, you can't do it without rebuilding the package you want to install.
You can, of course, use "--nodeps" when installing the rpm, but that will leave your system inconsistent. Some people don't mind. I do.
And never, EVER use "--force".
