Hi all, I'm in the middle of setting up a build environment for OpenWRT and it looks like the packages need flex. Looking at the CentOS repositories, it looks as though the flex package is tagged as fc6 - it also looks like there is no flex-devel package at all. Does anyone know what the go is here? Available Packages Name : flex Arch : i386 Version: 2.5.4a Release: 41.fc6 Size : 124 k Repo : base -- Steven Haigh Email: netwiz at crc.id.au Web: http://www.crc.id.au Phone: (03) 9001 6090 - 0412 935 897

Maybe you'll have better luck, if you look. Anyway, in a recent thread that mentioned the fact that fc6 stuff was in the CentOS repository, it was pointed out that Red Hat kept some fc6 tags on stuff they included in the final release (of 5.0?). There are probably other packages that are similarly tagged. Because CentOS tries to be near 100% upstream-compatible, they have also kept the tags. HTH -- Bill
