Longer version
I'm trying to set-up MailScanner which requires a newer version of Perl IO than CentOS 5 appears to have in it's standard repos. I've also tried updating Perl from the rpmforge repo - but that just results in a bunch of transaction conflicts being reported by Yum. Is there another way of updating Perl from repos?
I have some production and test server with Centos 5.2, when I try any yum command I get the error message:

and i am having problem while downloading repos via yum .
My primary repos are DVD .isos on my hard drive loop-mounted in /etc/fstab. Although I can install packages just fine and there are no issues with running installed applications, I must have screwed up the configuration of /etc/apt/sources.list because I get this output when I do apt-get update:
Code: Select allIgn file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
Ign file: jessie InRelease
[Code] .....
Here is my rather primitive but functional /etc/apt/sources.list:
Code: Select all# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.2.0 _Jessie_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20150906-11:13]/ jessie contrib main
# deb cdrom:[Debian GNU/Linux 8.2.0 _Jessie_ - Official amd64 DVD Binary-1 20150906-11:13]/ jessie contrib main
deb file:/dvd1 jessie main contrib
deb file:/dvd2 jessie main contrib
deb file:/dvd3 jessie main contrib

So what exactly have I screwed up?
I'm using openSUSE 11.3 with KDE 4.5.4. The updater applet works fine for me, however I think it only checks for updates from the update repo. I tried to modify this behaviour by right clicking the icon and checking "show available updates, when the backend provides it(for experts)" (translation from polish so it may not be 100% accurate) but the behaviour is the same, it only prompts me when there are updates available in the update repo but I would like it also to prompt me when there are updates available in the packman and KDE stable repo. Is it possible to force the updater applet to do this ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedThat application is included in CentOS default repo and can be installed via yum. The version number indicates that this is a rather old release. This fact in itself is okay with me. But according to the original developer's site this release contains a major security bug and should be patched immediately. is the file from CentOS repo a copy of the original release or are any patches applied?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI use KDE but there is no login manager at all, no KDM or even GDM.I have to login from the console and startx each boot.Not especially problematic but I can't understand it. Apparently there is GDM installed but I don't know how to set it to run at bootup, as it's not a daemon (is it?).And I can't find a KDM package in any repo I have tried.

I've tried to use the CentOS5 repos. I've created a file in /etc/yum.repos.d called CentOS5.repo that contains:

Suppose I'm interested in some application. That application is included in CentOS default repo and can be installed via yum. The version number indicates that this is a rather old release. This fact in itself is okay with me. But according to the original developer's site this release contains a major security bug and should be patched immediately.
The question: is the file from CentOS repo a copy of the original release or are any patches applied?
My problem starts with trying to run "apt-get update", I get a long hang time for some reason. It hangs at Waiting For Headers, but there is more going on I believe so I decided to run "strace apt-get update" to find out what is going on. Now, this was my attempt at Canadian repos. After waiting for about 2 minutes on the strace I get a list of the following...

I come from ubuntu, and, although they are all linux distros, they differ in a lot of things. Well, I just install the OS and I have a 1 TB drive for storage formatted in NTFS, I identified the device with fdisk -l, but the problem is Centos doesn't understand ntfs partition out of the box. Is there any package I need to install. I tried yum install ntfs-3g, but got an error: "no such package in repos,"
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've installed RPMforge and Smart Package Manager.
I had to create my own Centos 5.5 channels to sync yum repos and smart channels.
Here's the Centos 5.5 channel file for Smart:
Just shut Smart PM down, copy this file into /etc/smart/channels, and restart smart.
Smart should then detect the new channels (repos) for Centos 5.5
Update your channels in Smart, and you should then have yum repos and smart channels both in sync, looking at the same set of packages.
Copy this to CentOS-Base.channel, and add it to the /etc/smart/channels directory.
# CentOS-Base.repo

I've got a server running on some old hardware miles away from me, to convert to a newer version seems counter-productive as I'm happy with what's there, just want to add a few packages, but yum can't find the repos - have they been totally removed or are they still mirrored somewhere?

View 10 Replies View RelatedA few days ago, I noticed that flash wasn't working. I don't use flash often and have Flashblock guarding the gates so not quite sure when that happened. In the process of getting it running again I noticed a lot of Iceweasel add-ons are available in the Debian repos. In fact, deleting Flashblock from Firefox and switching to the one from the repos may be what fixed the problem (or it could have been the latest Iceweasel update which I reinstalled).
Anyway, my question is . . . just how do add-ons available via Synaptic and those from Firefox differ? And is it preferable and advisable to use the ones in Synaptic? Since I imported my old profile from Firefox to Iceweasel, I have a lot of standard add-ons rather than the Debian version.
is it possible to remove repos from yum. I'm using leigh123's flash x86_64 flash plugin, but Adobe's original i386 repo keeps reacticvating and wnating to updat... thus breaking my flash player is there a way to completely remove it from yum

Looks like a program to view ACPI data.
FWIW, ACPI was not installed by default and is not an "officially approved" program; has no Ubuntu Logo next to it in Synaptic.
Also, I have CONKY installed, so I have CPU and GPU data on a window, but I would like to see those on a Top or Bottom Panel.
I have a laptop with an nvidia graphics card: GeForce 9200 Nouveau causes problems, I can't boot the Live F14 CD except in safe graphics mode. I want to install F14. I have F12 and use kmod-nvidia How do I tell the installed F14 to boot in safe graphics mode? Some command line parameter? Or alternatively: how do I get the rpmfusion repos written into yum.repos.d? After that I can install kmod-nvidia. if I can't boot into GUI, I don't know how to write to /etc/yum.repos.d

I have various repos in my yum.repos.d including rawhide, google, and various others which I can enable on specific yum commands with --enablerepo=reponame.
Question is, how come these aren't enabled by default? When I do a yum repolist they don't show up, which effectively leaves orphan programs.
I can see why you might not want rawhide enabled by default for obvious update reasons, but I might want others to be enabled by default, like google for one.
So how is the default repo anabling/disabling controlled?
