I am running CentOS 4.x and the updates keep dieing
at:

Processing Dependency: libjasper-1.701.so.1 for
package: ImageMagick
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Missing Dependency: libjasper-1.701.so.1 is
needed by package ImageMagick



i have tried the following combinations with zero
luck:

yum --exclude=foo update
yum update --exclude=foo
yum update --exclude=foo --exclude=foo_lib
yum --exclude=foo --exclude=foo_lib update

all of them give the EXACT same error as if i was not
using the --exclude option.

does not matter if i tell it to exclude ImageMagick,
ImageMagic+libjasper, or libjasper it just keeps with
the same BS.

so what is wrong with yum and why does it not do what
it is told, or is the man page wrong, or am i reading
it wrong?
