yum install w3af Missing Dependency

[jmarcus]

I have read some posts that seem to reference this issue.

I'm trying to install OpenVAS and having difficult resolving dependencies.

 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

Yeah it looks like were still short some deps for EL5, we're really early into the testing process here for everything. It took a considerable amount of tweaking to get w3af working on FC14, I fully expected el5 to be as difficult.

[jmarcus]

Anything else I can do to help the processes move forward?

This is actually exactly what I needed. Although if you want to take a stab at those dependencies I certainly wouldnt object. I'd probably throw you a parade
