RHEL is now shipping perl-Archive-Tar.noarch 1:1.39.1-1.el5_5.2 from RHN. Note the 1 in the epoch field.

The rpmforge extras repo has perl-Archive-Tar.noarch 0:1.56-1.el5.rfx

Because of the epoch, the RHN one is seen as newer, and tries to replace it, but fails every time (killing the update process with it) because of a bunch of things that require 1.44 or newer as a dependency.

Should the epoch be bumped to match on the one in rpmforge?
