This sounds like an update-out-of-dep-loop issue that was left
outstanding in yum 1.0.X. It's a bit of code left that never got dropped
in to fix that situation.

Ahh. Any chance of it getting dropped?

Rats.

Yum 1.0.x doesn't list the repo in the 'yum list available'. Here's me
output :

Name                                     Arch       Version
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------
Canna                                    i386       3.5b2-50.as21.1
Canna-devel                              i386       3.5b2-50.as21.1
Canna-libs                               i386       3.5b2-50.as21.1
[blah]

So I can't grep that out :(

I see under 2.x that the repo is listed. Which is great for my ES 3
machines, but not so great for my (hordes of) 2.1 machines.. :(
Is this an easy addition?
