I will report it. I only have an old FC2 with it's yum at hand, but running "yum localinstall" on CentOS 4.1 shows how that command works: $ yum localinstall ethereal-gnome-0.10.12-1.EL4.1.i386.rpm Setting up Local Package Process Examining ethereal-gnome-0.10.12-1.EL4.1.i386.rpm: ethereal-gnome - 0.10.12-1.EL4.1.i386 Marking ethereal-gnome-0.10.12-1.EL4.1.i386.rpm to be installed Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.

For the exercise I manually downloaded the ethereal-gnome-0.10.12-1.EL4.1.i386.rpm file manually to /var/tmp/ and run there "yum localinstall". You see, yum checks metadata and wants to fetch the 3 dependencies.
