Just checking to be sure. 5.3>5.4 update went without a hitch:) But a message ran about (/etc/yum.repo.d) CentOS-Base.repo.rpmnew. Comparing CentOS-Base.repo with the new one show the 1st has the correct priorities and .rpmnew does not have the correct priorities. Should I remove the *.rpmnew repo after making sure it otherwise is the same as the original CentOS-Base.repo?

I am trying to install CentOS-DS on version 5.4 x86_64. I cannot get to the Extras repo due to lack of wired Internet access. I have wireless (except to server) and I have big UFD drives.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am not able to easily tell what yum is doing when attempting to decide what to do when given repo files that have defined the same name (eg "[updates]"). Yum seems to spot the dups, but seems to *always* select the mirrorlist from the CentOS-Base.repo. I have unsuccessfully tried to have my custom.repo come before the CentOS-Base.repo using 01custom.repo or CUSTOM.repo. My hope is just to overload yum into using the custom.repo *without* removing/modifying the CentOS-Base.repo. If I remove the CentOS-Base.repo, the custom.repo works. Even with all of the custom.repo, 01custom.repo or CUSTOM.repo in the yum.repos.d dir and no CentOS-Base.repo, yum does what I want.

I need to install some software which allows me to read chm files. I cannot seem to find the appropriate package in the base repository. How can I install such a reader?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThere appears to be three rpms duplicated between the base repo and the updates repo:
gnome-python2-gtkhtml2-2.14.2-6.el5.x86_64.rpm
gnome-python2-extras-2.14.2-6.el5.x86_64.rpm
gnome-python2-libegg-2.14.2-6.el5.x86_64.rpm
This causes a big problem for Spacewalk as the packages are non-unique among channels.
I'm assuming these should be in base but not updates?Can they be removed to address this issue?
My installed version of Open Office on my Centos 5 box, (3.1.1 OOO310m19 Build 9420) did not have the database component installed. No problem I thought and went to System>Add/Remove software and after logging in as root searched for it. All straight forward and simple. But two packages are listed as available. The package detail for both is identical so which one or both should I install? They are:
1. openoffice.org-base-3.1.1-19.5.el5.i386
2. openoffice.org-base-3.1.1-19.5.el5_5.1.i386
I have tried 'Googling' for both but none of the information availabe, and there is masses, seems offer any clear suggestions of which way to proceed. The first seems to be a bug release but bearing in mind that the pakage detail is identical to the second I am not so sure.
The only thing is that rpm.hozac.com wasn't responding so I got my new kernel from a mirror site. However the mirror doesn't know anything about the GPG key. On the instructions page it said that rpm.hozac.com is "often unavailable" and gives an alternative location for the kernel download. But it doesn't say what to do about the GPG key! And I can't load the new kernel without the key.So, what do I do? (Apart from wait until the repository comes back online!)
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am an old days RH release user(from 6.x) and just switching back from Debian/Ubuntu to CentOS on some servers, but I can not understand the kernel update strategy currently enabled in CentOS.There are two boxes, with almost identical installation, but recently there was an auto update of kernel on one box. This auto update also seems to issue an auto reboot on the machine, which is unacceptable on server machines.

I'm unsure as to why yum is looking in the "5" directory instead of "5.3" or "5.4" and it looks like that is the only issue. It seems as though $releasever is returning 5 instead of the current 5.3 that this system is on.

In the release anouncement there is mention of adding additional repo's at install time. Is this also possible in the kickstart file?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI don't know if this would be usefull to others but since we are using kickstart and then running post install scripts I needed a way to add rpmforge and set the yum-priorities for it correctly via script and here is what I cam up with. If you want to use go ahead (make sure you comment/uncomment the correct repo for your architecture). also not the ex commands are whitespace sensitive. If anyone sees a way to improve this let me know.
