A colleague supplied me with a set of rpms he built on his Fedora box 
and when I tried to install them with yum localinstall I got a missing 
dependency:

Centos 5.2 provides python 2.5.1.  My colleague's system where he made 
these rpms also has 2.5.1.  How do I determine what rpm I need to 
install to get this dependency?
