I think I found one of my setup problems. I followed instructions at: http://atrpms.net/install.html And now I see that the information shown there to put into yum.conf (that I put into yum.repo.d/atrpms.repo) is only for FC, not for RL5 (thus Centos 5). What do I use in my atrmps.repo to get it to access the RL5 directories?

Don't enable atrpms-testing or atrpms-bleeding as they mean what they are named as. :) (They are disabled by default in the example below, so it's safe to cut and paste) $ cat /etc/yum.repos.d/atrpms.repo # # [atrpms] name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 - x86_64 - ATrpms baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el5-x86_64/atrpms/stable failovermethod=priority # # requires stable # [atrpms-testing] name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 - x86_64 - ATrpms testing baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el5-x86_64/atrpms/testing failovermethod=priority enabled=0 # # requires stable and testing # [atrpms-bleeding] name=Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 - x86_64 - ATrpms bleeding baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el5-x86_64/atrpms/bleeding failovermethod=priority enabled=0 -- Axel.Thimm at ATrpms.net -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I have to boot back to Centos 4 for a bit (figure out what is wrong with my Thunderbird setup), then come back and try this. I use yumex, and first do everything stable. Then if I am looking for things, then I enable bleeding and testing. I should note that at least until recently, the wpasupplicant was over at either testing or bleeding, don't remember which right now...

I will have to look into priorities. Seem to recall about this, but I am sure whatever I did over on Centos 4 did not carry over to Centos 5. Protectbase did, as that is easy and well covered on the wiki with 3rd party repos. I do a lot of searching in a message base of over 25K messages before I post here. Of course the thing with searching is knowing what to search for!
