Hi,

Particulars:
   Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client release 5.6 (Tikanga)

'pup' indicates that an updated "libtiff" package is available.  But
when I try to install it I get the following errors:

------------------------------ Delimiter BEGIN --------------------------------
Missing Dependency: libtiff = 3.8.2-7.el5_5.5 is needed by package libtiff-devel-3.8.2-7.el5_5.5.i386 (installed)
Missing Dependency: libtiff = 3.8.2-7.el5_5.5 is needed by package libtiff-devel-3.8.2-7.el5_5.5.x86_64 (installed)
------------------------------- Delimiter END ---------------------------------

I tried the following, but it didn't make a difference:
% rm -rf /var/cache/yum/*
% yum clean all

And lastly, it appears to me as if the missing dependency isn't really
missing (see below).  Although, I may not be interpreting the
aforementioned errors correctly.

% yum list installed | grep libtiff

libtiff-devel.x86_64                     3.8.2-7.el5_5.5               installed


Any assistance would be appreciated.
