I have big problems with dependecies when I try to update.
When I run yum update it ends with this :
Error: Missing Dependency: libFLAC.so.7 is needed by package libtunepimp
Error: Missing Dependency: libFLAC.so.7 is needed by package gstreamer08-plugins
Error: Missing Dependency: libparted-1.8.so.0 is needed by package qtparted

Then I try to find this stuff on rpmfind.net. But when I try to install what I files like
ibFLAC.so.7 and ibpython2.4.so.1.0 I get the answer I have newer files installed allready, and there it stops.
Alternatively, you may be being told that the update would replace libraries upon which the listed application depend. Look at the list of libraries to be updated and see if yum has proposed to install a newer version of the library that the application needs.
Often application developers do not control the libraries used by their applications, and -- since they can not test their application with a version of a library that has not been released when they release their application -- they specify that their application depends on a specific version of the library.
Uninstall the application, wait for the developer to test it with the new library, and reinstall after the tested version is released. Alternatively, don't update the library in question. (Of course, some other application may depend on the newer library version, so you may need to choose between various applications.)
