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
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.

I'm sorry, but that is a CentOS issue. You will have to contact the distro maintainers
R.

Installing Cacti from the tarball is just as easy as using the package. In fact, you'll end up with the files in the "right" location if you do it manually.

In CentOS you have to install all the dependencies for Cacti manually anyway. So, do the following if you just want Cacti (without Spine):

Code: Select all

sudo yum install httpd php php-mysql php-snmp php-xml mysql mysql-server net-snmp net-snmp-utils rrdtool

If you plan on using Spine you'll need all those plus:

Code: Select all

sudo yum install gcc mysql-devel net-snmp-devel

That's based on a CentOS 5.5 installing with EVERYTHING except the 'Server Configuration Tools' removed at the time of installation.

I was searching for a fix to my spine.conf problem and found a site that is relevant to yours ... http://www.linuxismybff.com/category/howto/

That site has the most straightforward click-for-click how-to I've seen.
