i'm tempted to agree, except that the error clearly shows that the
new udev conflicts with an existing bluez file, so obviously there's
*some* kind of inter-relationship there that doesn't seem to exist
with the *newer* bluez packages.
in any event, i just did
# yum upgrade bluez\*
and that did the trick -- i'm now in the midst of a 300+ package
upgrade. but i BZed this anyway:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=533925
someone else can decide if, somehow, udev and bluez need to learn how
to play nice.
