Hi Ned., What does rpm say? 'rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib64/libyaml-0.so.1' This is what rpm reports back at that command: [root at ops:~] #rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib64/libyaml-0.so.1 libyaml-0.1.2-3.el5.x86_64 > > > Can someone please point me in the right direction for solving these > > problems? > > > These are not CentOS packages (python26-PyYAML and libyaml). I would > suggest you ask on the appropriate list for whichever repository these > packages were installed from (rpm -qi should tell you). > > And here is what rpm -qi tells me: [root at ops:~] #rpm -qi libyaml-0.1.2-3.el5.x86_64 Name : libyaml Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 0.1.2 Vendor: Fedora Project < http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> Release : 3.el5 Build Date: Tue Mar 3 13:53:12 2009 Install Date: Sat Nov 5 18:57:39 2011 Build Host: xenbuilder2.fedora.redhat.com Group : Development/Libraries Source RPM: libyaml-0.1.2-3.el5.src.rpm Size : 126347 License: MIT Signature : DSA/SHA1, Tue Mar 3 14:48:55 2009, Key ID 119cc036217521f6 Packager : Fedora Project <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> URL : http://pyyaml.org/ Summary : YAML 1.1 parser and emitter written in C Description : YAML is a data serialization format designed for human readability and interaction with scripting languages. LibYAML is a YAML parser and emitter written in C. So thinking back it may have been a custom python repo that was used to install that. So I guess I can take it from here!
