FYI
Fakeprovide lets you satisfy RPM dependencies by creating a wrapper package that provides the named dependency of your choice. You can use this if you are working with a package from a third party that for some reason has non-critical unsatisfied dependencies.

mmmhh... it's something quite old AFACT..
I suggest to report here (and in bugzilla too) all unsatisfied deps, so that we can find the right package

I don't really understand the use case. If you really need to install something with unsatisfied deps (which should only be done if you know what you're doing), you can already use rpm --nodeps -Uvh /path/to/rpm

Wouldn't that bypass yum's db if you use rpm instead?

Which isn't a problem. yum will just print a warning about a transaction done outside of itself.

Ok, anyways, I was struggling with certain rpm's that were not satisfied, one of them required nginx, so I faked it. Thx.
