Missing Dependency: perl(YAML::Any)

Question

I have a problem with git, when I run yum upgrade on a centos5 server.

yum upgrade

output:

Error: Missing Dependency: perl(YAML::Any) is needed by package perl-Git-1.7.11.3-1.el5.rf.x86_64 (rpmforge)

When I try yum info perl-YAML, it says, that perl-YAML is installed.

Name       : perl-YAML
Arch       : noarch
Version    : 0.66
Release    : 2.el5.art
Size       : 171 k
Repo       : installed

Whats the problem here?

Thanks flo

You are installing Git from rpmforge and it may require newer YAML. Try to install newest YAML from CPAN as Logic Wreck recommends. — Serhiy, Sep 10 '12 at 14:14
I ran cpan -i YAML:Any, but I get this error also with the newest YAML files. — sbo, Sep 10 '12 at 15:35
I'd also encountered this problem. Maybe it's related to other packages/repos installed on the system? — Xuni, Sep 12 '12 at 23:33

I added this one:

http://pkgs.repoforge.org/perl-YAML/perl-YAML-0.72-1.el5.rf.noarch.rpm

which worked for me:

# yum install git
