Hi,

Sorry, but I can't help myself laughing over this rpm stupidity. This is the
reason I never use rpm's :-). You could always force it to install it :-)

Or you could remove the dependancies first (hopefully the dependacies don't
require further dependancies) then install the new imlib. and updated
imlib-cfgeditor and imlib-devel

slackware and tarballs for me exactly for this reason :-) Maybe debian does a
better job though than rpm.
