HI, I would like to upgrade my customized CentOS 5.5 to CentOS 7. For this I took the latest stable CentOS 7 image and wanted to install the packages that are there in the existing customized version of CentOS 5.5. I could install some of the packages, but the following packages I couldn't install. 1. Rhpl 2.mod_perl 3. 3.notification-daemon 4. 4.vixie-cron 5.kudzu 6.redhat-lsb 7.mod_python 8.webalizer 9.pam_ccreds 10.libnotify 11.irda_utils 112.readahead 113.MkInitrd 114.Alchemist 115.Cadevar 16.system-config-network-tui 17.firstboot-tui Whwhen tried to install the packages using *YUM *command, it is complaining that no such package. W When tried to install packages from rpm's, there are too many dependencies? CaCan you please suggest the best way to install the above packages in the latest CentOs? WhAre the packages deprecated? or merged into some other package? THThanks for the help -- Thanks & Regards, Venkateswara Rao Dokku.

Can you please help me in installing the above packages?
