Hello,

How can I use yum to force the installation of a certain package, but without breaking the dependencies of the newer package?

Thank you,

Pim

I believe the closest you can come to that is -t or --tolerant, which will be tolerant of errors.... the problem is, yum is built specifically to handle dependencies, so, you might have your best bet going with a tar ball.
