How strange.... if I read this correctly, yum isn't happy that the 
XFree86-Mesa-libGLU is *already* intalled.  Isn't that even better than 
yum having to install it?

Here is what I see happening:
1) qt needs libGLU.so.1
2) libGLU.so.1 is provided by XFree86-Mesa-libGLU.i386
3) XFree86-Mesa-libGLU.i386 is ALREADY INSTALLED
4) FAILURE

Huh ??!!  I don't understand this.
