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
Scalr is installed on the machine and is managing things there, its the one that installed the python stuff
My answer:
NB: This answer is provided only for completeness; CentOS 5 is past end of life and rpmforge is a dead project. Neither should be used anymore.
You previously installed libyaml from the third party repository “rpmforge”, but then you disabled that repository. To install the corresponding libyaml-devel package, you need to re-enable that repository, either temporarily by using --enablerepo=rpmforge on the yum command line, or persistently by editing its repo file in the /etc/yum.repos.d directory.
