Hi All We want to install packages like xfig and transfig on centos 5.5. We found rpms available but them but it seems there are lot of dependencies for these packages. So we would like to setup yum repo for this. Can anyone suggest trusted baseurl for yum repo? Regards Hersh -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

May be our repository is different then yours. Since it's working for you can you paste baseurls in your yum repo fie? It would be very useful.

Yes Alain is absolutely right about ROCKS. @Alain: Thanks for the information. We'll check what we have in stand alone CentOS.BTW what do you have in yum.conf file?

As a yum update may break the configuration, /etc/yum.repos.d/ is empty by default. I use myself Rocks, an I populate /etc/yum/repos.d/ by copying what I have on other CentOS workstations, but avoid to do any update. With Rocks, you do update by upgrading to the newest version (which would be Rocks 5.5, based on CentOS 5.6...).

Hi hersh, See my detailed answer on this subject on Rocks mailing list (October 26) : https://lists.sdsc.edu/pipermail/npaci-rocks-discussion/2010-October/049657.html I did nothing in yum.conf.
