When I do a yum list httpd I get the following version returned:

httpd.x86_64 1:2.2.22-12053112

When I try to do a yum install httpd-devel I get dependency errors like this:

httpd-devel-2.2.3-65.el5.centos.3.x86_64 from updates has depsolving problems
  --> Missing Dependency: httpd = 2.2.3-65.el5.centos.3 is needed by package httpd-devel-2.2.3-65.el5.centos.3.x86_64 (updates)
Error: Missing Dependency: httpd = 2.2.3-65.el5.centos.3 is needed by package httpd-devel-2.2.3-65.el5.centos.3.x86_64 (updates)

How can I determine what packages I need to install?

This is on a mediatemple DV 4.

Here is the output of yum repolist:

Update:

I think I made some progress on this. I found this on the plesk forum since mediatemple dv's run plesk.

I made a repository file in /etc/yum.repo.d/ with the following contents. 

[Plesk-Apache]
name=Plesk Apache
baseurl=http://autoinstall.plesk.com/APACHE_2.2.21/dist-rpm-CentOS-5-x86_64/
enabled=1

You've installed a third party repository webtatic and the error complains of a missing package from that repository.

Sometimes this happens when your local cache gets out of sync with the state of the repository, and in that case you can just

yum clean all

and try again.

If that doesn't solve the problem, then you should contact the maintainer of the third party repository to report the problem.

  • I ran the command above and then ran yum install httpd-devel got more missing dependency errors. I installed the webtatic after not having any luck with the default repositories. Going to do a clean install of the VM and start over. – user429699 Jan 15 '13 at 20:02
  • Ok, I reverted the VM to it's original state and updated the post above with appropriate responses I got after doing so. – user429699 Jan 15 '13 at 20:18
