*Troy sighs deeply*
Ugg ... the poorly named rpm's still keep popping up.  I could have 
sworn I searched every rpm, but it looks like I missed another one.

libpng10-1.0.16-3.1.i386.rpm was really supposed to be 
libpng10-1.0.16-3.el4_5.1.i386.rpm

That was back when RedHat first started doing the el4_X in the names, 
and our scripts weren't that good.  We got some of them wrong, and I've 
been trying to clean it up ever since.

I have removed that poorly named errata out of the yum repositories and 
reran the yum repository scripts.

For the time being, you will have to remove the "older" libpng10 rpm by 
hand, but then when you try again with yum, it will pick the correct, 
newer libpng10.

Well, you will need to do a
   yum clean all

before doing the update or install, because yum remembers the old yum 
repository information for a while.
