Try to install those two RPM packages you've just downloaded.

[tchung@localhost tchung]$ cd download
[tchung@localhost download]$ ls
bsddb3-4.1.6-1.i386.rpm  straw-0.21.1-1.i386.rpm
[tchung@localhost download]$ sudo rpm -Uvh *.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:

        gnome-python2-gnomevfs is needed by straw-0.21.1-1
