Hi folks,
I have some doubts with regards a Python module called paramiko (used to
automate ssh related stuff)
1. Does Paramiko 1.7.2 and 1.6.4 work with CentOS 4
2. If yes, what is the exact ''yum'' command to install paramiko
on CentOS 4?
I have tried all possible ones without success.
yum install paramiko
yum install python-paramiko(with and without version numbers)
python-paramiko.noarch
*[rUSER at HOST]# yum search paramiko
Loading "fastestmirror" plugin
Loading "priorities" plugin
Searching Packages:
Setting up repositories
extras 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00
update 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00
base 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00
addons 100% |=========================| 951 B 00:00
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Reading repository metadata in from local files
0 packages excluded due to repository priority protections
No Matches found
*
Installing it without yum throws dependency problems which are never ending
: starting with python-crypto and python(abi) - which I am unable to find;
which will no doubt lead to other dependencies.
Is there any change that has to be made to the yum repository to point it to
look in a different place?
3. Alternatively, I also have apt-get on the CentOS box - can you tell me
some repos that I can add for apt-get as well?
Thanks,

Thanks Marcelo. That certainly helped. Although, now I keep seeing this message: *[root at mpvmpc19 paramiko]# yum install Crypto.Util.randpool Loading "fastestmirror" plugin Loading "priorities" plugin Setting up Install Process Setting up repositories not using ftp, http[s], or file for repos, skipping - ~ Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Reading repository metadata in from local files 336 packages excluded due to repository priority protections Parsing package install arguments * In the yum configuration file, there are may mirrors listed in a few files: What should the priorities be? (I wnt to make sure no packages are excluded. 336 is a very large number) Second: I was able to install python-paramiko. It seems to work with Python2.3 (Python2.3 comes as default with CentOS). I have installed Python 2.4.6 and need the same to work with that. Any tips? -- Raghu Narasimhan raghu.united at gmail.com On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 3:08 PM, Marcelo M.

I''m not familiar with CentOS 4, but seems that something is wrong. About the python version. I would say that depends on how did you installed it. If you installed python from sources, then I think you have to build paramiko also. But I''m not sure. Regards M.
Thanks for your response. I did install paramiko only after installing python2.4, so I am not sure why it installed itself into the site-packages folder in /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages (2) this is my /etc/yum.conf *[main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log pkgpolicy=newest installonlypkgs=kernel kernel-smp kernel-devel kernel-smp-devel kernel-largesmp kernel-largesmp-devel kernel-hugemem kernel-hugemem-devel distroverpkg=centos-release tolerant=1 exactarch=1 retries=20 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=1 plugins=1 # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d * As you can see there are no exlcude parameters, so any idea where that 336 number is coming from? -- Raghu Narasimhan raghu.united at gmail.com On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 4:34 PM, Marcelo M.

You definitely *want* priorities to keep your core CentOS files intact and not overwritten by rpmforge. Make sure that none of your repos has a lower priority number than centos-base and updates.

Super, thanks for the tip. Turned out the ''enabled'' parameter was 1. Changed it to 0 and all is well. Now 0 packages are excluded due to priorities. Can anyone share a default CentOS-Base.repo file here, please? Just for my verification. Happy to report resolution in the Paramiko problem too.

Now 0 packages are excluded? due to priorities.You clearly did not understand what the priorities plug-in is and what it is used for. By excluding a repository, 0 packages are excluded by the priorities plug-in, but at the same time all the others that were available in that repository will no longer be available anymore, so in fact you have *less* packages than you did before.

Any tips?If you''re installing Python 2.4 on CentOS 4, it means you still did not grasp the concepts of an Enterprise Linux distribution. Please see: http://www.centos.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=17299&forum=38#forumpost62162 http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/General#head-472ce8446ebcfc82ca1800f775ba0e629ac835c7 http://www.redhat.com/advice/speaks_backport.html You will probably not get any support from this list for your Python 2.4 install on CentOS 4, since that is clearly not part of CentOS itself. Luckily for you, if you really need Python 2.4, you can move to CentOS 5, it will be present there. If you want to stick to the bleeding edge, you''d better look into distros such as Fedora and Ubuntu. HTH, Filipe
