Broken Dependencies in YDL2.3?

Hi,

I have just installed YDL2.3 on my dual G4 450, and have noticed some 
broken dependencies on the extras (tasty morsels) CD.

1.) xemacs:
 rpm -Uvh xemacs-*
error: failed dependencies:
    ctags is needed by xemacs-21.4.6-6a
    libRKC.so.1.0   is needed by xemacs-21.4.6-6a
    libcanna.so.1.0   is needed by xemacs-21.4.6-6a
    libwnn.so.0   is needed by xemacs-21.4.6-6a

the Canna, cWnn, and FreeWnn packages that were in 2.2 are not included 
in 2.3

2.) tetex-xdvi
rpm -Uvh tetex-xdvi-1.0.7-41.ppc.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
    libVFlib2.so.24   is needed by tetex-xdvi-1.0.7-41

if I try an apt-get install tetex-xdvi

Sorry, but the following packages have unmet dependencies:
  tetex-xdvi: Depends: libVFlib2.so.24 but it is not installable
E: Sorry, broken packages

(the rest of tetex installs ok)

3.) webmin - apparently webmin doesn't yet support YDL2.3 (just 2.2)
 
rpm -Uvh webmin-0.970-1.noarch.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### 
[100%]
Unabled to identify operating system
error: execution of %pre scriptlet from webmin-0.970-1 failed, exit status 2
error:   install: %pre scriptlet failed (2), skipping webmin-0.970-1

(The website only lists YDL2.2 as supported)

4.) Octave package is missing, as are blas and lapack packages, which 
were included in 2.2 (I can use the 2.2 rpms, but they *should* be in 
the latest if nothing really has changed).

Any help with any of these? Anyone?

Thanks in advance ,
Henry
