Guys/Gals:
On 64bit 6.5, I've had to "yum remove" the Xiphos package because it was causing errors in "yum update", complaints about it requiring libgtkhtml-editor. I've had Xiphos installed since I installed 6.x almost a year ago, and it has worked fine for me.
recently yum is complaining about this issue, and I can't figure it out. there doesn't appear to even BE a libgtkhtml-editor package anywhere, including on epel, which is the purveyor of the xiphos package:
# yum whatprovides */libgtkhtml-editor Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, priorities, refresh-packagekit, security Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirrors.advancedhosters.com * elrepo: elrepo.org * epel: mirrors.mit.edu * extras: mirror.steadfast.net * rpmfusion-free-updates: mirror.nexcess.net * rpmfusion-nonfree-updates: mirror.nexcess.net * updates: mirror.cisp.com 87 packages excluded due to repository priority protections No Matches found
Clues appreciated. (I'll also be posting this on the Xiphos user list, as someone there may know what's going on.)

It's in the gtkhtml3 package.

Should I be worried about the 87 packages excluded by priority protections?
I have the following priorities set up (and they look right to me). note that I've not shown most of the ones that aren't enabled, just to keep it shorter:

It's in the gtkhtml3 package.

No, that doesn't seem to be the problem.
further digging:
# locate gtkhtml-editor <snip> /usr/lib64/libgtkhtml-editor.so /usr/lib64/libgtkhtml-editor.so.0 /usr/lib64/libgtkhtml-editor.so.0.0.0 <snip>
# yum list installed | grep -y gtkhtml gtkhtml3.x86_64 3.32.2-2.el6 @base gtkhtml3-devel.x86_64 3.32.2-2.el6 @base
# rpm -ql gtkhtml3.x86_64 | grep libgtkhtml-editor /usr/lib64/libgtkhtml-editor-3.14.so.0 /usr/lib64/libgtkhtml-editor-3.14.so.0.0.0
So the file is there, and it came from a RPM file properly installed from the Centos "base" repo.
so, why won't yum divulge that RPM as the source of the .so file when I do: yum whatprovides */libgtkhtml-editor.so.0 ?????

^^^^^^ See the difference?

Well, kind of.

The first three symlinks you found with locate weren't actually installed via rpm. I doubt they were installed by any package at all (were probably created by you at some point and you forgot), but to find out: rpm -qf /usr/lib64/libgtkhtml-editor.so{,.0,.0.0.0}
...so obviously they won't show up when you search yum for them.
