I've had the following errors when running "yum update" on my CentOS 4
box for several months now. I thought perhaps they'd go away after
the recently-announced rpmforge repository split into
extras/testing/etc. but that didn't change anything. (Does the split
apply to all RHEL versions or only RHEL5 & 6?)

perl-AnyEvent.noarch 5.240-1.el4.rf rpmforge
perl-Module-Install.noarch 0.92-1.el4.rf rpmforge
rar.i386 3.8.0-1.el4.rf rpmforge

Missing Dependency: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.4) is needed by package rar
Missing Dependency: perl(Archive::Tar) >= 1.44 is needed by package
perl-Module-Install
Missing Dependency: perl(Net::SSLeay) >= 1.33 is needed by package perl-AnyEvent

I don't think there's any way to resolve the GLIBC_2.4 dependency on
RHEL4 so either rar needs to be rebuilt or removed from the
repository? The perl issues are probably related to protectbase.

The split applies to all repositories, but we still need to move quite
some packages from rpmforge to rpmforge-testing as some dependencies are
not met.

The below problems ofcourse are different, they should never have been
introduced.

I have set up repoclosure to make sure we tackle each of them, but there's
a lot to resolve and I was planning to first focus on RHEL6 and then
RHEL5, RHEL4, RHEL3 and RHEL2 :-)

It won't happen overnight, this is something that will take weeks :-/
