which is the correct dag rpm to install when there are duplicates

[osde8info]

i am getting duplicate entries in dag rpm repository with different names in different cases !

# yum search fileinfo
php-pecl-Fileinfo.x86_64 : Fileinfo is a PHP extension that wraps the libmagic library
php-pecl-fileinfo.x86_64 : PECL package to get file information through libmagic


# yum search geoip
GeoIP.x86_64 : C library finding what country an IP/hostname originates from
geoip.x86_64 : C library for country/city/organization to IP address or hostname mapping

which is the correct rpm to install ?

It is not a CentOS repository. You will have to take it up with dag.

[pjwelsh]

Sure it's dag's?[code]repoquery -a --qf "%-20{repoid} %{name} php-pecl-Fileinfo php-pecl-fileinfo"[/code]

ah many thanks thats the answer

i seem to be getting results from the EXTRAS and DAG repos so i'll just try and use yum to reduce priority of DAG so EXTRAS overides it !

# yum info geoip
