GiT and CentOS 5.2

From: James B. Byrne <hidden>

OS = CentOS-5.2
perl = 5.8.8

I get git from the yum repository at kernel.org.  Up until the most recent
update I had no problems.  Now I am getting these dependency errors:

Error: Missing Dependency: libcurl.so.4 is needed by package git
Error: Missing Dependency: perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.10.0) is needed by
package perl-Git
Error: Missing Dependency: libc.so.6(GLIBC_2.7) is needed by package git
Error: Missing Dependency: libexpat.so.1 is needed by package git
Error: Missing Dependency: libcrypto.so.7 is needed by package git


Are these dependencies actually meaningful?  By that I mean, are there
features used in the latest release of GiT that depend upon features of
GLIBC 2.7 that are not part of glibc-2.5?  Similarly, are there features
of curl used in the latest git that are not present or work differently in
curl 7.15.2?  Ditto for OpenSSL and libxpat.

I would like to stay current with git but I cannot if these dependencies
are actually required.

Regards,
