yum update problems


I'm running yum update and getting the following errors
I'm trying to run yum update and I'm seeing the following error:
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
perl-IO-Compress-2.024-1.el5.rf.noarch from rpmforge has depsolving problems
--> Missing Dependency: perl(Compress::Raw::Zlib) = 2.024 is needed by package perl-IO-Compress-2.024-1.el5.rf.noarch (rpmforge)
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(Compress::Raw::Zlib) = 2.024 is needed by package perl-IO-Compress-2.024-1.el5.rf.noarch (rpmforge)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest


has anyone been running into this? Thanks.

has anyone seen this. I've tried to install this program but I can't find it.

Seen it?! Its the Red Hat Dependency hell!

It needs perl, and shows you some commands to try and run...

Google, man yum and you are all good resources for solving the problem!
