CentOS 5 :: How To Add Source Packages
Apr 29, 2009
I installed CentOS 5 (x86-64). I got a project which was developed long time ago and need to update it so it can be run in the fresh new CentOS 5.2. All I know about the project was that it had been developed with and wxGTK1.2. I look at the makefile, which contains:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
SYSTEM_INCLUDE = -I/usr/X11R6/Include
-I/usr/include/cairo

OS: Ubuntu 10.04.
When I try to install some packages by aptitude, I see this:
Before it, I made it (sudo apt-cdrom add):
And it (sudo apt-get update):
My dvd-disk is not broken - md5 checksum is right. In sources.list I have only cdrom source, without any network repositories. When I install one package (for example pptp-linux) which don't use any depending, it work good, but when I have some group of packages - installed only first package from this group, you can see this in a first image, marked by yellow color and set to 16 percent.

I would like to create some packages for programs that use the Git software to manage the source, I want to do this directly using the source code in the Git repo as the source code form the package. Does anyone have any hints or directions on how to do this? I been looking round the web for information about this, but all I seem to find is for about storing and build Debian packages from git, this is not what I want to do as these packages are for personal use and I have no need for this.

Wanted to switch to Kubuntu and decided a clean install was the way to go. Though the learning curve isn't too tough, I've hit a serious snag: When I try to compile a source package according to the similar instructions in each of the README files, I get the same error message;
Instructions:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` ..
make
su -c 'make install'

My SL6.1 Distribution isn't connecting the the source packages from yum. It says something along the lines of the repo???.xml cannot be found for altrpms & sourceforge packages.
I have already tried using the command:
su yum clean all su yum update package-list
but that failed to work.
and su yum makecache
Is there any other way i can try? Like uninstalling the source from yum then reinstalling it?

I am building a router and I wonder if I have some rules like this and
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/accept_source_route is 0 will it work.
Code:
echo 1000 TEST >> /etc/iproute2/rt_tables
iptables -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.2.0/24 -t mangle -j MARK --set-mark 1
ip rule add fwmark 1 table TEST
ip route add default via 192.168.3.5 dev eth2 table TEST
I am not quite sure is it source routed packages at all. And also even if it works with my router will next firewall drop such packages. I have mentioned before that some things like:
Code:
ip route add default via 192.168.3.5 dev eth2 src 192.168.2.0/24
do not work

Very often we get to hear Binary / Source when we talk about installing packages...From what I understand "Binary" refers to a natively packaged installation by a Distro wheras installation from Source would entail fetching the files, Compiling and then building the package. When we say "source" where do these codes reside? Is it diffferent for different distros or one common source like "sourceforge.net" or similar?! I know it sounds silly but what is the origin of the source codes??
One general remedy if a package is not found is to install from source... So , source would refer to a "tar.gz" or "bz2" archive present at some location like "[URL]". In some cases , id it possible that some packageas are not available in "Source". When I tried to build a package for a particular distro , I was told that some dependencies are not un the source ...What is the meaning of this? So do all distros maintain the codes in their official repositories?

If I want to compile a kernel from source (from kernel.org), including all the drivers I need regardless of their origin, I would not need any firmware-*.deb packages, right? Do the firmware packages add anything that is not present in the latest kernel?

I need a newer version of the nvidia drivers for opensuse 11.4. ftp://download.nvidia.com/opensuse/11.4 has version 270.41.06 available, but I found that I need the 270.41.19 version for CUDA 4.0 to run (yes I know CUDA 4.0 does not officially support 11.4, but the same 270.41.06 is available for 11.2 which CUDA 4.0 does support).
Where can I download the files x11-video-nvidiaG02-270.41.06-5.1.nosrc.rpm and nvidia-gfxG02-270.41.06-4.1.nosrc.rpm that these binaries were created from? Once I have the source rpms, I can easily update them to the newer version.

I have recently installed a dev branch of Postfix on my box (jaunty), in order to access some new features. This requires that I do not use any of the postfix-related packages in the repos, I have to set this all up manually.
What is the best method for me to manage this system moving forward? Do I need to prevent the repo's postfix package (or anything depending on it, like postfix-mysql, postfix-dovecot etc.) from ever being installed accidentally? Is there anything else I need to worry about? How do you folks generally manage having compiled, customized versions of software that exists in the repos on your systems?

Can anyone recommend any open source customer support portal software? I'm looking for something where users can sign in, and submit support tickets for a wide variety of issues (game play, billing, etc). Then a Support Agent can login and assign tickets, respond, etc. I've already started looking at bugzilla, but I was hoping to find some other options to compare to.

At work / home / laptops I have about 5 slackware machines. I have always tended to install new packages on each machine from source, generally using slackbuilds when available. I thought I would try 'libreoffice' and reading alien-bobs blog I deduced that a full from source install might be pretty difficult, so I followed his advice and just took the package (.txz file) and used installpkg. To my slight surprise this installed and ran perfectly.
Now I'm wondering if someone would clarify under what circumstances you can just take the slackware package from one machine to another and install. More generally I guess what are the main advantages of building from source. Is it mainly about availability of all the required dependencies?

I have a copy of the DVD Iso for centos 5.3. I downloaded the updated packages to the Centos directory and then ran the repomanage perl script to remove the old files from the directory. I then ran the createrepo and the new iso image with the script code below.
baseDir=`pwd`
rhelBuild=`pwd`/dvd-iso-contents
rm -f CentOS_1.0.0.iso
echo "Updating repository"
dvd_discinfo=`head -1 $rhelBuild/.discinfo`
echo "$dvd_discinfo
[Code]...
I am using VMWare to test the build, so I have the cd pointing to the iso image. I get the CentOS to start up find and dandy asking the questions for the interactive boot. It gets thru the stage of checking dependencies and then when it starts to copy down the image to the "harddrive" that is when the problem occurs.
One of the updated files is file-4.17-15.el5_3.1.i386.rpm (file-4.17-15.el5.i386.rpm was removed using repomanage), but the loader is looking for the removed file. I've looked thru any dependencies, but nothing specific for the removed file, all are asking for /usr/bin/file with no specific version numbers. I have run a rpm -test on all the rpms, but haven't been able to look thru that to see if there is a specific request for the version.
I did try this, but it just moved on to the next file. I did not replace the file version, but then it found another problem that was the same as this, the updated file is in the repo, but it is requesting the old version. I looked thru the fileslist and others to see if maybe that was the problem, but they were updated to the new versions.

I've noticed this happen with every CentOS installation I've done in the past and it's confusing me. On the software template screen select, I always select "Server" and leave the extras option unchecked, I also check "Customise now". The only things I choose are the editors (to get vi), Web server and server configuration tools (and this time also Java). I didn't select any GUI programs, yet it still installs things like X, GNOME components and also samba. Why does it do that? There no way they're needed for dependencies. Is there something I'm missing when selecting the software components? Why does it still install samba when I didn't select it from under "Servers" components? Or have I misunderstood what software selection does and it installs all those components regardless but doesn't automatically turn the services on?

Has anyone successfully compiled VLC 1.0.0-rcX (rc1, rc2 or rc3) from source on CentOS 5? I have a binary installation of VLC 0.9 but I would like VLC 1.0 as it has a new codec that I'd like to use. I've tried lots of ideas which I can post - I keep getting build errors due to wrong package versions - but I thought I'd ask to see if anybody has a HOWTO first.

I've met several issues recently while building the MySQL server from CentOS 5 SRPM. The root problem are the expired SSL certificates used for built-in tests making all the tests fail. The problem is widely described on the net and I am in doubt now what to do: should I submit a patch or what?

Where do people generally put third-party source code that must be configured and compiled? For years I've using my home directory for that, but there must be a better way. Are there general standards, or best practices, or guidelines on where to put the software? /usr/local? /usr/src? Is there a document that discusses this?

To make sure I have the latest packages installed, I no longer install anything from yum, I just compile them from source (or where source isn't available, from .rpm) directly from the application's website.
I was just wondering if there's a best practice about where to put application files that you compile yourself? Most of them seem to default to putting their files in /usr/local. What I currently do is then create symlinks from /usr/sbin, /etc/<appname>/conf, /var/log, /var/run etc. Is this messy? How should I be doing this instead?
