    The cleanest fix for this is to build your own Apache RPM (tweak the
    official one with your changes) so that the dependencies will be
    satisfied.

    This appears to be a Centos system, not a Fedora system.

    --force is not a way of avoiding dependencies.

    Use --nodeps instead of --force. But building your own apache RPM would
    be *much* better, and you'll still be able to understand rpm's output in
    the future, which won't be the case if you screw up your system by
    installing with --force or --nodeps.

    Paul.
