I would check to see if you have later package installed (yes I know the message says >=).  I found on a clean install of fedora 9 where I did a Yum upgrade on the system and then followed the build instructions I had problems with dependencies where the packkages being too new. I then had to uninstall the offending packages and thier dependencies. When I did a yum <package name> it picked up the right dependencies.
 
I.e. the steps I did was
 
rpm -q <package name>  to see what I had.
 
yum install <package name>  check the log to see what errors I recieved.
 
yum erases <dependencies>
 
yum install <package name>  as this would also pick up the depencies.

Subject: [Pki-users] building dogtag

I am trying to build dogtag from the latest SVN trunk using the default Fedora 8 installation.  While running the build_pki script, I receive the following unmet dependencies:

 

     [exec] error: Failed build dependencies:

     [exec]     java-devel >= 1.6.0 is needed by osutil-1.0.0-4.fc8.i386

     [exec]     nspr-devel >= 4.6.99 is needed by osutil-1.0.0-4.fc8.i386

     [exec]     nss-devel >= 3.12.0 is needed by osutil-1.0.0-4.fc8.i386

 

I’ve tried to update these rpms, but there are no updates available for Fedora 8. Should I upgrade to Federa 9 to get these packages?  Thanks
