Foe a while now, yum update has been failing on the perl-gettext package with:

Transaction Check Error: file /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/Locale/gettext/gettext.so from install of perl-gettext-1.05-1.el5.rf conflicts with file from package perl-Locale-gettext-1.05-1.el5.rf

Can anyone give me any advice in how to solve this?

Full output follows:

# yum update perl-gettext Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait. ---> Package perl-gettext.i386 0:1.05-1.el5.rf set to be updated --> Running transaction check

You need to take that issue up with rpmforge maintainers.
