when I wanted to install git-1.7.3.4-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm by running
yum install git-core
or even running
rpm -i git-1.7.3.4-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
it prompted me with a notice that
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(DBI) is needed by package git-1.7.3-1.el4.rf.i386 (rpmforge)
THe fix is so easy
just go to the file /etc/yum.conf using a text editor such as nano
nano /etc/yum.conf
then remove perl*
save the file by existing using CTRL+x and confirming to save changes
run yum install git-core again
finally you should see this notification
