CentOS - Oct 2005 - Yum Dependency errors

Greetings,
This is a new install on CentOs 4.1 dvd  from a couple weeks ago. The
initial yum updates worked fine but now There are about 15 things that
get dependency errors and yum will not
install the updates.  Rebuild the RPM database,  removed
/var/cache/yum/* , yum update yum for the latest version and the
errors still exist. When you query the rpm database the dependency are
installed.
Here are some examples:

# yum install gtkhtml3

Jay, have you moved over to 4.2 as yet ? if not are you running a 
hardwired 4.1 repo locally to install against ? Remember the online 
mirror's have moved the /4/ link over to point at the 4.2 repositories now.

Here is a potential fix: Update to 4.2. Run through a 'yum update yum; 
yum update' cycle. then see if you can still produce the same errors.
