My mistake. I believe Seth is correct, here. I just reproduced the
problem using 'rpm -Fvh' as well:
ws187:root:535)# rpm -Fvh cyrus-imapd-* perl-Cyrus-2.2.6-2,FC3,3.i386.rpm error: Failed dependencies:
cyrus-imapd = 2.2.6-2 is needed by cyrus-imapd-devel-2.2.6-2,FC3,3

Odd thing is, I was NOT able to reproduce this upgrading balsa from
2.0.17-3 to 2.2.0-1,FC3,5:
ws187:root:576)# rpm -ivh balsa-2.0.17-3.i386.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:balsa ########################################### [100%]
ws187:root:577)# rpm -Fvh balsa-2.2.0-1,FC3,5.i386.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
1:balsa ########################################### [100%]
Bug in rpm's version compare function?
