Unless you are forcing packages I don't see how the package management
system is being broken.  To the contrary, the package management system is
working as designed because it won't let you install packages that would
break dependencies on installed packages.

Maybe we should go back to the old way of making everyone manually
download and update packages so that people won't complain about yum and
up2date not working...
