Yum simply does not seem to be able to handle this chain of dependencies scenario. I consider it broken!
Use the --skip-broken parameter to see if the dependency resolution goes further.
FWIW the interplay between the packages that you have installed and those available in the repositories can be at fault and not yum.
Well, I had no such problems in fc13. How come that interplay did not cause conflicts in fc13?
And yes, --skip-broken does work as far as installing things that have no conflicts. But the conflicts remain and every time I run yum to install or update something, it belches out the report about broken packages.
