There is almost always something better and safer then using --nodeps.

In this case, it is to upgrade the gnome-libs and gnome-libs-devel RPM's
simultaneously. They are required to match in version number, so if you try to
upgrade either one first, you'll get a failure, but if you upgrade them
both at once using a single rpm command line, it will work fine.
