The existing boost-devel-1.31.0-9 is removed but the new boost-devel-1.32.0-1 is NOT installed. It can be installed by a "yum install boost-devel" afterwards. It probably has something to do with these Obsoletes you put in the packages and the way rpm/yum works: Obsoletes: boost <= 1.31.0 Obsoletes: boost-devel <= 1.31.0 Obsoletes: boost-doc <= 1.30.2 Obsoletes: boost-python <= 1.30.2 greetings, Rob van Nieuwkerk
