I maintain the package UpTools-8.5.5-2.el5.i386.rpm that is in epel5 testing, but has dependency problems:

postgresql84-devel-8.4.7-1.el5_6.1.i386 from installed has depsolving problems --> postgresql84-devel conflicts with postgresql-devel postgresql84-8.4.7-1.el5_6.1.i386 from installed has depsolving problems --> postgresql84 conflicts with postgresql Error: postgresql84 conflicts with postgresql Error: postgresql84-devel conflicts with postgresql-devel You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: package-cleanup --problems package-cleanup --dupes rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

So I've modified the spec in order to use postgresql84 as requires but now it outputs:

Transaction Check Error: file /usr/lib/libpq.so.4.1 from install of postgresql-libs-8.1.23-1.el5_6.1.i386 conflicts with file from package postgresqlclient81-8.1.11-1.el5s2.i386

What is the proper way to approach this issue?

Thanks in advance!
