[Yum] Dependancie problem installing package with yum.

[Babu Kalakrishnan]

I have a very similar problem to what another poster had experienced
regarding dependencies.

Here is what yum reports (Trying to install package tomcat on Fedora Core 2)

Resolving dependencies
....Package commons-beanutils needs
lib-org-apache-commons-collections-2.1.so, this is not available.
Package commons-digester needs
lib-org-apache-commons-collections-2.1.so, this is not available.

[root at ganga]# locate lib-org-apache-commons-collections-2.1.so
/usr/lib/lib-org-apache-commons-collections-2.1.so

[root at ganga]# rpm -qf /usr/lib/lib-org-apache-commons-collections-2.1.so
commons-collections-2.1-12

So obviously rpmdb is aware that commons-collection is already
installed. Any clue of what can be going wrong ?
