Don't you think I tried to yum install it??? Yum returned with something like no match found.... What repos do you have on your system? Kind regards, JD

You'll also want EPEL enabled. jh

One of the configured repositories failed (CentOS-7 - Media), and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this: 1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem. 2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working upstream. This is most often useful if you are using a newer distribution release than is supported by the repository (and the packages for the previous distribution release still work). 3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then just ignore the repository until you permanently enable it again or use --enablerepo for temporary usage: yum-config-manager --disable c7-media 4. Configure the failing repository to be skipped, if it is unavailable. Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands, so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice compromise: yum-config-manager --save --setopt=c7-media.skip_if_unavailable=true failure: repodata/repomd.xml from c7-media: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try. file:///media/CentOS/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#37 - "Couldn't open file /media/CentOS/repodata/repomd.xml" file:///media/cdrom/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#37 - "Couldn't open file /media/cdrom/repodata/repomd.xml" file:///media/cdrecorder/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] curl#37 - "Couldn't open file /media/cdrecorder/repodata/repomd.xml" Does anyone have it working?

That is what millions of users want. We purposely ONLY include functionality that is in RHEL. That is what CentOS is. If you want other functionality .. it is available via EPEL and other 3rd Party Repos and CentOS Special interest groups. This give you the ability to add things, while maintaining CentOS what it is designed to be .. a rebuild of RHEL with exactly that source code's functionality. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

I just thought that the install DVD would provide a note or something as to what other repos are available so that a new user of centos does not have to face a wall of unavailable packages. But thatnx to the users on this list, all that is behind me.
