On a new RHEL5 client install, I get these errors when I attempt to upgrade:
gcc-gfortran-4.1.2-48.el5.i386 from installed has depsolving problems

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.
Tried:
rpm -e gcc-gfortran
Still get the same error.
yum clean all yum update
Same error
yum install yum-utils package-cleanup --problems yum update
Same error
rpm -e rpm-build rpm -e gcc-c++ rpm -e libstdc++-devel yum -y upgrade
WORKS!
Will try to reinstall these packages later.
UPDATE
If you get an error message like this, check your channel subscriptions! I got this when the satellite server lost all of our channel subscriptions.
