I am getting a missing dependency message for libx264.so.54 is needed by package mplayer. The yum check-update for packages doesn't even show mplayer is to be updated. That library is in /us/bin on my system and when I run the mplayer that I have that's allready installed it runs fine. A ldd on mplayer shows it is referring to the correct /usr/bin/libx264.so.254.so.54. Why is yum failing to do the daily yum update?

This is because you are going to update libx264.so.54 with newer version, but mplayer requiers exactly this(not newer). Try with yum -x libx264.so.54 update
Regards! :)

The option -x is not recogized by yum however if I run sudo yum --exclude 264 update it works and the packages are updated. Thanks for pointing that out to me.
