Circular Dependency on 5.5.36

You are viewing an old version of this question. View the current version here.

Does anyone have a clever solution to installing 5.5.36 when compat and common rpms have a circular dependency, Since the contents appear to be needed do we need them packaged separately?

[root@faws01_dbs itadmin]# yum install MariaDB-5.5.36-centos6-x86_64-compat.rpm

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

As you can see one is dependent on the other, that is not a smart approach

Any thoughts
