Howdy,<br>
I've been scratching my head over this problem for the last few days
and figured it was time to get some help.<br>
<br>
I'm trying to build Ruby on Rails v2.3.8 against Fedora 13 but am
running into dependency issues. Namely the 'rubygem-activerecord'
package (rails is simple a collection of this and a few other
active*/action* packages) pulls in the 'rubygem-activesupport' package
of the same version, but yum is failing to find it, even though it is
installed. Ergo it results in this error:<br>

</div></pre>
</div>

Note how it says 'rubygem-activesupport = 2.3.8' is required while
rubygem-activesupport-2.3.8-1.fc13.noarch is installed. This is
happening both on a stock F13 install and against mock setup to pull
packages from Fedora and from a yum repo w/ the
"rubygem-activesupport-2.3.8-1.fc13.noarch" package in it.<br>
<br>
What could be the cause of this problem? Is it something that can
easily be resolved? (without using the --skip-broken flag preferably)<br>
