[SOLVED] yum install apt error

Issue

I got below errors when installing apt. It seems I am missing require packges.

Error: Package: apt-0.5.15lorg3.94a-5.el5.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
               Requires: librpm-4.4.so()(64bit)
    Error: Package: apt-0.5.15lorg3.94a-5.el5.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
               Requires: librpmio-4.4.so()(64bit)
    Error: Package: apt-0.5.15lorg3.94a-5.el5.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)
               Requires: librpmdb-4.4.so()(64bit)

Anyone encountered similar things before? Do I need to install the missing package one by one?

Thanks.

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Solution

Try to install/Update rpm-libs-4.4 first. If not found in rpmforge release repo, try epel release.
