Hello,
I thought I'd wait a little while before upgrading to 5.4, but am running into the following errors:
-> Finished Dependency Resolution lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 from base has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: device-mapper >= 1.02.32-1 is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base) mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-54.i386 from base has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: device-mapper-multipath >= 0.4.7-9 is needed by package mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-54.i386 (base) lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 from base has depsolving problems --> Missing Dependency: device-mapper-event is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base) Error: Missing Dependency: device-mapper-multipath >= 0.4.7-9 is needed by package mkinitrd-5.1.19.6-54.i386 (base) Error: Missing Dependency: device-mapper-event is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base) Error: Missing Dependency: device-mapper >= 1.02.32-1 is needed by package lvm2-2.02.46-8.el5.i386 (base)
It would appear that these packages do exist, although earlier versions:
# rpm -q device-mapper device-mapper-1.02.13-1.el5
Any thoughts would be appreaicated.

Rohan.
I had some similar problems with my update, not with the same packages as you, but with yum claiming that dependencies needed to be installed-- dependencies which *were* already installed. All I did was a "yum reinstall ..." on those dependencies and that fixed it. In your case "yum reinstall device-mapper" etc. might fix it. Hope so. Let us know.
