october upgrade rpm weirdness?



I installed RH6.1 a week or so ago, and have been told I should upgrade
gnome to the october release.  So I go to gnome and get all the october
rpm's, devel included, except a half dozen or so that are not newer than
those currently installed (rpm -q xxx).

The install went well except for the following dependency error:

error: failed dependencies:
	gtk+ = 1.2.5 is needed by gtk+-devel-1.2.5-2

Huh... a devel pkg needs a earlier "base" pkg, when later versions of both
are already installed??

(the october pgk release files in question are:
    gtk+-1.2.6-1.i386.rpm and gtk+-devel-1.2.6-1.i386.rpm)


Here's more info:

[root@localhost october_gnome]# rpm -Uvh gtk+-1.2.6-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
	gtk+ = 1.2.5 is needed by gtk+-devel-1.2.5-2
[root@localhost october_gnome]# rpm -q gtk+
gtk+-1.2.5-2
[root@localhost october_gnome]# rpm -q gtk+-devel
gtk+-devel-1.2.5-2

What's the suggested way to get my october upto snuff?

Thanx.
