Don't know about RPM (my systems don't use it) but I do know that if you download yaz-3.0.52.tar.gz from http://www.indexdata.com/yazand

Code:

tar xzf yaz-3.0.52.tar.gz
cd yaz-3.0.52
./configure
make
sudo make install

you'll probably have better luck.

Note that the above will install in /usr/local, the default when you execute configure. If you do not want it installed in /usr/local, simply change

Code:

./configure --prefix=/usr

Hope this helps some.
