Why does yum think this dependency is missing? It is installed on my

Zlib.so()(64bit)
perl(Compress::Raw::Zlib) = 2.024
perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib = 2.024-1.el5.rf
(same for Bzip2).
Because it wants to update Bzip2 but cannot, as perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib
depends explicitly on the older version. So it cannot update Bzip as
that would break old dependencies.
No, perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib doesn't depend on perl-Compress-Raw-Bzip2.
perl-IO-Compress depends on both perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib and
perl-Compress-Raw-Bzip2.
The error message is extremely misleading. I think the only sane way
to interpret
| perl-IO-Compress-2.030-1.el5.rf.noarch from rpmforge has depsolving problems
| -- Missing Dependency: perl(Compress::Raw::Bzip2) = 2.024 is needed by
package perl-IO-Compress-2.030-1.el5.rf.noarch (rpmforge)
is that it cannot install perl-IO-Compress-2.030-1.el5.rf.noarch because
perl(Compress::Raw::Bzip2) = 2.024 is missing. But it is not missing, in
fact it is already installed. If it cannot upgrade
perl-Compress-Raw-Bzip2 because something else depends on it, it should
say so.
