After several days of yum problems (no livna), I switched to the
failovermethod=priority mirror method, and yum starts normally.
However, it bombs out with:
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: dbus-qt = 0.33-3.1.fc4.kde is needed by
package dbus-devel

When can I get that? If I just download it as an rpm (I haven't
checked from where yet), will that screw anything up?

Thanks in advance.

What I did was to rpm -e dbus-devel and then everything worked just fine.
Apparently, dbus-devel was not needed by anythng on my system, although it
must have been at one time, otherwise I would never have installed it in the
first place.



Isn't there a way to see what depends on something before I -e it? I
just did a man rpm but didn't see an option for checking. How is that
done?

A simple way of doing this is just to run the "rpm -e" as a non-root user. If there are dependency issues, rpm will tell you. If not, the remove will fail because you're not root.
