I have to build my own rpms for the HIPL project. I update my copy of the code and make rpm. Thing is the rpm name never changes from patch to patch. Is there a way to have yum apply the new code as an update and not have to erase then install?

...alformed database. I ran freshclam and updated the database but still have the problem. I was going to uninstall clamav but there are other app dependencies. Virtualmin is one. How can I do an uninstall/re-install without hosing more stuff up? I have found some examples, --nodeps, --replacepkgs and -replacefiles Also, what is the rpm command that will tell me all packages named clam*. Haven't used it in a while and have forgotten. I tried rpm -q "clam*" but that didn't work. TIA

Hi, I've made mysqlf a RPM and installed it. After that i did what i shouldn' do: remove the files it installed. Now, i wnat to install it agai and i can't.

Hello, I'm using Centos: /proc/version = Linux version 2.6.18-128.el5 (mockbuild at builder16.centos.org) (gcc version 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-44)) #1 SMP Wed Jan 21 10:44:23 EST 2009 I did a mistake and erased libc.a from /usr/lib How can I recover it without reinstalling Centos ? Thanks.

I started a new thread since the original one is getting rather long. I have retrieved the files I deleted in /boot and /boot/grub, however I need to make links for /boot/System.map (System.map -> System.map-2.6.9-89.35.1) /boot/vmlinuz (vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-2.6.9-89.35.1) /boot/grub/menu.lst (menu.lst -> ./grub.conf) If it was not so important to get it correct, I would appreciate

Hello, As part of testing an alternative module I saved the original module and copied the test one in. The test was done and I put the original module back. Now the original module is not loading at startup and doing it manually I get the error WARNING: Error inserting {Module name & path } Required key not available. And in /var/log/messages shortly after boot I can see kernel:

...s found. Well, I though that this might be caused by a faulty SCSI disk in array, that distort the data that's being written to it, instead of informing host that there's a bad block here. Ok, that's easy to check. Let me go to the single mode, reinstall distorted RPMs using rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs, do a couple of 'sync's, remount all filesystems with -O ro,sync, and check installed rpm's with a rpm -Va. Headed on, done all above, got nothing. After a reinstall all files became correct, and LVM tools got back to a correct behavior without "Segmentation fault". Hmm... tha...

Use "rpm -Vf /path/to/original/module.ko" If rpm tells you that the checksum has been modified, then the "original" file you've got isn't the correct file. Download the rpm that owns that file, and use "rpm -i --replacefiles --replacepkgs <rpm>" to reinstall the kernel package.

Hello, A while ago I downloaded and compiled PAM 0.99.x and installed it over the default CentOS PAM installation. Of course, this premature decision led to root and FTP access being fully locked down and inaccessible. When I `su -`, it prints "su: incorrect password" before it gives me the chance to type a password. When I `sudo su -`, it prints "sudo: pam_authenticate:

I'm just posting this in case someone finds it helpful, or knows of a better/safer way to accomplish the same thing. Thanks. Kevin Taylor

Dear all I've come out with a howto that I wish to contribute back to the community. This howto is actually a sort of a draft that I made for my own "self-reminder". It was an interesting experience collating the data to eventually come out with the stuffs. I hope it is useful enough to someone not to go through the same "hell/happy hunting grounds" The said howto is

Hello *, i get following error: Downloading needed headers Resolving dependencies .....Unable to satisfy dependencies Package rpm-libs needs rpm = 4.2.3-13.WB2, this is not available. I switch from WhiteBox to Centos. How can resolve this problem?

I tried to install alsa 1.0.19 on centos 5.3 64 - did not work - compile errors. I need to re-install alsa-lib and alsa-util . I dont want to do rpm -e first on those packages as dependcy is crazy. I know they were installed (rpm -qa | grep alsa tells me so) I just want to re-install ? How do I do that? Thanks, Jerry

Alle, I have a major problem. I'm running CentOS 5.5 on some rather old hardware (Dual Celeron 500MHz with 768MB of memory). Sometime in the last week, the DB became corrupted (I noticed when yum update would hang). I've tried running rpm --rebuild with both the 2.6.18-194.17.4 and 2.6.18-194.26.1 kernels and get a segmentation fault each time. Consequently, I'm pretty much stuck

I accidentally enabled a repo, so my automatic yum upgrade installed a bunch of stuff and possibly broke yum. Is it possible to reverse this? Follow is the yum log of what got installed.
