[users] freetds and perl-DBD-Sybase conflict

[David Hess]

The perl-DBD-Sybase-1.10-1.el5.rf.i386 package relies on the version of
freetds that is in the base centos repository, which conflicts with the
version of freetds that is in the rpmforge repository

the workaround is to do this:
yum --disablerepo=rpmforge install freetds
yum install perl-DBD-Sybase

I am running CentOS 5 with rpmforge, and have run into the following odd
situation.
i am using both freetds and perl-DBD-Sybase, but now the freetds package
in rpmforge is conflicting with the perl-DBD-Sybase package in rpmforge.
I know i can just block the freetds package from rpmforge, but shouldn't i
be able to install both? Am i just doing something wrong or is there
really an issue with these packages?

Another friendly note, this perl module with 1.15 version will land in
EPEL soon.
