Real dependency hell: trying to cut back the number of packages on a centos server system a bit. Yes, not installing them would be even better, but that was a thing in the past. The winner for dependency is:

yum remove alsa-lib-1.0.17-1.el5 alsa-utils-1.0.17-1.el5 alsa-lib-devel-1.0.17-1.el5
..
Removing for dependencies:
..
 system-config-lvm             noarch 1.1.5-1.0.el5             installed 2.9 M
 system-config-network         noarch 1.3.99.12-1.el5           installed 2.3 M

Configuring your network and logical disk volume manager depends on sound drivers. Right. A reminder to use Ubuntu server for any next server.
