[CentOS] What is the recommended method to obtain Pan 0.136+ (with SSL) for Centos 6?
Q: What is the recommended method to obtain Pan 0.136+ (with SSL) for Centos 6? I've been successfully using Pan 0.135 from the RPMForge repository for about a year now: $ yum --noplugins --showduplicates --enablerepo \* --disablerepo c6-media,\*-source,\*debug\* provides "*/pan" ==> 1:pan-0.135-1.el6.rf.x86_64 : The Pan Newsreader ==> Repo : installed $ sudo yum --enablerepo rpmforge install pan -y ==> Package 1:pan-0.135-1.el6.rf.x86_64 already installed and latest version For a good reason (native SSL support), I'm interested in testing out Pan version 0.136 (or above). So, the question arises, how 'best' to find and install Pan 0.136 (or above)? A search at http://rpm.pbone.net failed to find any RPM for 0.136 or above: http://www1.picturepush.com/photo/a/12878464/img/12878464.png But I do find the later Pan RPMs in later Fedora releases: http://pkgs.org/download/pan (e.g., Fedora 17 & 18 have later RPMs): http://www5.picturepush.com/photo/a/12878508/img/12878508.png Or, I can compile Pan version 0.139 from source code: http://pan.rebelbase.com/download/ Given these seem to be my choices (and, given that only about half my compiles ever work); may I ask first the basic question: Q: What is the recommended method to obtain Pan 0.136+ (with SSL) for Centos 6?

Natively is very difficult to run because it requires stuff that's too new to be found in EL6. :) That or find an alternative to Pan. -- Sent from the Delta quadrant using Borg technology!
