Never did get it going, however, for the record, this problem disappeared
when I upgraded to the 2.4.22-1.2163 kernel
Consider this thread closed.

That does appear to be the problem, but not really an incorrect
dependency, I believe. The dep is probably right, but you may have hit
the repo right in mid-update, or something like that. It's happened to
me before where some new bits had been uploaded, but other hadn't. It
does funny things... So you might just try again in the morning, and
perhaps it'll work, who knows... :-\
