Hi Folks!

I've had a pestering problem for a while and after finally spending some time on it I was unable to find a solution.

The last several times I've updated packages on my RHEL 5 server, it has tried to install a new version of redhat-menus, only to find that it conflicts with the version of evolution that I have installed.

The message I get from pup is "redhat-menus conflicts with evolution <= 2.4.1-5".

I presume that "evolution <= 2.4.1-5" means that redhat-menus will work with evolution, as long as evolution is version 2.4.1-5 or newer.

So the next step I took was to try to manually update evolution.

I tried:
yum update evolution
yum upgrade evolution

RHN runs but finishes with "Could not find update match for evolution."

I tried manually searching the WWW for a RHEL 5-compatible RPM, with little success.

And Google was little help when I searched for "redhat-menus conflicts with evolution."

This isn't that big of a deal--I read the details for the redhat-menus package update and it doesn't seem to be anything mission critical, but I'd obviously rather it do what it thinks it needs to do rather than have to de-select that package each time.

Thanks in advance for any ideas.

I guess there isn't much point to an update, but I'll give one anyway.

I was a bit unclear in my original post. I don't need evolution--this is a web server, so I don't need a desktop calendaring tool.

I guess I misunderstood dependencies. I took the error message to mean that redhat-menus HAD to have a newer version of evolution to operate, when in fact it seems that it is more like redhat-menus will work without evolution, but if you have evolution installed, it has to be a newer version.

So I just did "yum remove evolution" and everything is happy now.

Thanks.
