CentOS 5 :: Yum Install FPC - Repositories Never Changed?
Dec 5, 2009
I've just tried to install freepascal [URL] on CentOS 5 using 'yum install fpc', and it installed package fpc-2.2.2-3.el5.1.i386. Since official stable version of freepascal is 2.2.4 (and version 2.4 will soon be released as new stable version), is it possible to update "official" freepascal in CentOS 5 repository to 2.2.4 (and later possibly to 2.4) ? I've read somewhere (wiki or website or some other place), that CentOS wont have php 5.2.5 because official CentOS repositories are never changed. Does this also apply to other software (like freepascal)?

I'm quite new to Linux/CentOS. I installed LAMP from official CentOS repositories and I'm wondering why the PHP (5.1.6) or MySQL (5.0.77) versions are so old. Why there is now the latest versions available.
Is it recommended to use these versions or should I update to the newest one - if so could you plesae provide me some links to official repositories&tutorials.

I recently installed 11.4 32bit on my computer at my summer home. I carry a DVD with all my /home data. Then today I noticed that all my repositories are labeled "11.3" repositories. Everything works. Here is the output from "zypper lr -d"...
# | Alias | Name | Enabled | Refresh | Priority | Type | URI | Service
[Code]....
What is the correct method of moving to the 11.4 repositories?

I have noticed that some repos in /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo files have the definition "enable=0", I am not talking specifically about the "testing" repos... of course these have some packages tha may disrupt the normal working of CentOS... but about all the remaining repos ( non "testing" ) that are disabled by default...Is it dangerous to enable them...? even respecting priorities and having yum priorities activated...?

I routinely build systems, and joy of joys, my ISP hosts one of the Centos Mirrors, and ergo downloads from there don't count against my ISP Quota
how do I force yum to use that particular repository for updates.
Alternately, I believe I can copy from there into my "local cache"? How does one do that?

I haven't tried CentOS in a log time, but CentOS 6 is coming out in a while, so I thought about trying it again. I'm using Fedora now and I like it, but I'm still reinstalling at least once a year. I'd like to get to the point where I can just sit on CentOS and update to reasonably up-to-date software without having to go through the trouble of compiling, etc.
So, I'm getting ready to install CentOS 5.6 in a virtual machine to play with. What repositories should I install and which ones are compatible? I'm using RPM Fusion now with Fedora with a handful of others for specific software not available in RPM Fusion.

I have a CentOS install but I have problem with repositories(I guess) because I can install almost basic system programs nothing more. How I can check the repositories list with the url of repo? Are they like in Ubuntu or Debian repo universe etc.? For e.g., I'm trying to install lighttpd from source but I can't get dependencies from the repo such as headers and more...

I am currently setting up a Mono environment (mono, monodevelop, gtk#, etc.) in order to experiment with C# programming. Ideally I would like to use the latest version of mono, 2.10; however, F14 repos only carry 2.6.x . Compiling and installing 2.10 from tarballs is causing me dependency troubles which I'm not willing to dedicate much time to. In the meantime, I came across this Novell-hosted rpm repo, which is supposed to be used by RHEL/CentOS users:[URL]. Is it possible to somehow add said repository as an installation source via yum/rpm, or the differences between Fedora and RHEL repositories goes beyond aesthetic differences?

I'm giving CentOS a new look as a desktop. Been a few years since I last installed it on anything but a server. While the default repositories have improved greatly I am still bereft of so much of my cherished and necessary software. No Gambas, Wesnoth (shows up but version is 2 years out of date), Chrome, Audacious ugly plugins, XMMS support for FLAC (shows up but errors out if I try to install), Cinalarra, Audacity, JACK audio, Ardour, Xine, Amarok, Blender, Gthumb, Abiword, gramps, disk utility, many KDE apps, it's almost like KDE is a forgotten desktop manager for CentOS repsositories and pages more of software I'm too lazy too list. All of this is software which shows up in Debian based distros and most of which in Fedora/SUSE repositories.
What are some good repositories for CentOS. I clearly have the wrong ones enabled or CentOS is a very crippled desktop. Here are the repositories I've added/have.
Updates
extras
addons
adobe
base
c5-media errors out so I have it disabled.
centosplus
contrib
kbs-CentOS-extras & misc
Rpmforge
RPMforge extras errors out so I have it disabled.
CentOS users what repositories do you use?

I am running Suse 11.1 64bit, with KDE, recently I received a pop up on my screen, "something about update problems", I used Yast 2 and selected online Update and it couldn't find updates for Nvidia and froze at that point. I dis-enabled that repository and refreshed all of the remaining Repositories individually and it seemed to work. I then went to the repositories listing and selected "Add" and selected "community" repositories and received the following: WARNING Unable to download list of repositories or no repositories defined. What is my problem? How do I acquire the list of community repositories? I can live with out the Nvidia repository for now but would eventually like to get it back.

A while back I had to install an extra yum rpm repository to my CentOS 5 server as I needed newer versions of httpd (v2.2. and php (v5.1.6) than were in the default repositories at the time.
I now wish to revert back to the standard repositories, I have removed reference to the custom repository from etc/yum.repos.d/ and used '# yum clean all' but cannot seem update these packages when I use '# yum update'.
Is there a way of making the rpm packages for httpd and php go back to using the standard repos, or will I have to manual update them from now on?
Or could I uninstall those rpms and reinstall from default repo without breaking the whole server?

I'm missing a fundamental that I just cant seem to wrap my head around with setting up repositories with RepoSync. I set up a local repository when my system was running version 5.2. Everything ran like a top up until the release of 5.3 Upon release I ran the standard yum on my 5.2 server which upgraded it to 5.3 and thats where my mental block is catching me up.
When I run a reposync It seems that all I'm able to download is the 5.2 packages. I'm trying to figure out how I can manage both a 5.2 repo along side a 5.3 repo with reposync and figure out what needs to be done to properly make reposync pull down the latest updates for the newer version. My original thinking was that once my repo server was upgraded to 5.3 it would start pulling the 5.3 updates but obviously I'm way off base since that is not happening.

I have Centos 5.3 on my home computer. When I was logging-in to the terminal it was like ( myname@34myhome.local$ ) now when I log-in to the terminal I get (myname@dhpdpc64$ ) I have not changed anything. It seems like my domain name has changed. Why the domain name changes automatically?

With virtualbox I do a test session to train myself with centos before I make big mistakes on my production server.I did take a harddiskfile vdi to another computer with virtual box. Now I have the problem that de MAC-address is changed.I can not get the mac adres anymore, becaus those computer is sold. How can i change the trust of the MAC-address in centos? Or must i change de MAC-address? If I may change the MAC-address, i must do that inside centos, end not inside virtualbox, if you understand me?

I'm using rsync to create a mirror of the data files on our main server every day. I've looked at the man page, and can't see it; can I get a listing of the files that have been changed on or added to the mirror when it's completed? Can it just log what it's doing to a file?

how rsync will handle disk images. Will rsync copy only the changed blocks of a vhd or a lun? This is what I've been told, but wouldn't this require overlaying a filesystem on the vhd? How would rsync handle copying a 500GB lun?

About 2 years ago I installed SUSE10.3 over the internet. Now the older repositories seem to have disappeared completely and I can't install any new software or little tools that I have missed. Is there any way to find 10.3 repositories somewhere or do I need to make a completely new installation every year?

I upgraded my system from 11.1 to 11.2, unfortunately after the upgrade there were no repositories set up. My notebook already has 11.2 on it, so I just copied the addresses from there and tried to update. Everytime I try zypper up, or from yast online-update. I wait for 10 min, and get an timeout error.
