The simple ordinary yum update of CentOS 5.3 spits a bunch of transaction check errors regarding packages perl-IO-Compress-Zlib-2.015-1.el5.rf.noarch and perl-IO-Compress-2.020-1.el5.rf.noarch which is supposed to replace perl-IO-Compress-Base-2.015-1.el5.rf.noarch <<
I had the same problem on one system, which was niggling at the back of my mind. I fixed it by brute force:
rpm -e --nodeps perl-Compress-Zlib perl-IO-Compress-Zlib yum install perl-IO-Compress
Ugly, but it works. I also noticed some messages when restarting amavisd-new, relating to error loading optional module . . . DKIM.pm, which *might* be related (hadn't noticed it before, but it was also appearing on another system which didn't have the Zlib errors above). Easily fixed with
yum install perl-Mail-DKIM
I did this half an hour or so ago, and everything seems to be running smoothly.

I tried that, as well as setting skip_broken in /etc/yun.conf, but the Zlib errors aborted the entire transaction every time, forcing me to update other packages one by one. That's what motivated me to do the hack above.
