Once more, the *-devel packages are needed [i]only[/i] for development. You would be safe removing them. If in doubt after seeing what yum would remove, just say No.

Gentoo by nature cannot exist without a compiler as everything is locally built. Yum dependency checking and associated tools are probably the closest CentOS equivalent.

Try to find out why your system tries to install a Fedora 11 package on CentOS 5. It could be a repository maintenance error.

Well, no message today, so everything is ok.
Topic closed, as far as I'm concerned.
Thanks everyone, and sorry again for confusing things.
I'll try to remove *-devel packages later, maybe.
Thanks again !
