Can you ask tx upstream why they need that level of intltool, and if there is a way to
work around it?

I tested in CentOS 5.5 with a package for F10.
But I did that by hand.
Doing that would be like cheating!
And it may be not acceptable by some internal policy.
I thought of the install to be as easy as doing a
yum install --enablerepo=epel-testing transifex
I have all packages in place now, except intltool. :-(
Who maintains intltool in RHEL5?
Perhaps asking...
If the package may not reach RHEL5 updates-testing, I guess we may use the fedora-admin
repo for this exception.
Is it possible?
