similar to: Where are the CentOS 6 security updates?

I am migrating from debian to RHEL (CentOS) and I am wondering how the CentOS 6 updating system works. Suppose I install CentOS 6.1 now. Suppose in 8 months CentOS 6.2 is released. Now I issue a yum update, so my system will be updated to CentOS 6.2, or I will have an updated 6.1 ? What if I have been issuing yum update very day just to be sure there are no packages with urgent security bugs

We are pleased to announce the immediate availability of CentOS-6.0 for i386 and x86_64 Architectures. CentOS-6.0 is based on the upstream release EL 6.0 and includes packages from all variants.

Just wondering if anyone might be seeing any similar frequent crashes of Firefox/GNOME/Nautilus lately. I have a couple of users who have reported a problem like this. Any ideas are welcome.

What's the deal with all of the new dependencies for xulrunner-devel in the last update? I'm updating my servers and the update for xulrunner-devel is forcing me to install 43 new packages! Is this a packaging problem, or are all of those packages really needed? For the moment, I've been removing xulrunner-devel from my machines to avoid the problem. I figure since it is a

Hi All, Am getting this: ---> Package xulrunner.i686 0:1.9.2.26-2.el6.centos will be updated --> Processing Dependency: libmozjs.so for package: gxine-0.5.905-1.el6.rf.i686 --> Finished Dependency Resolution Error: Package: gxine-0.5.905-1.el6.rf.i686 (@rpmforge) Requires: libmozjs.so Removing: xulrunner-1.9.2.26-2.el6.centos.i686 (@updates)

After my / disk seemed to be failing and found many files disappeared, I decided to remove it. I moved my other disk to it's place. Long story omitted. After installing my backup of /home and seeing firefox not restart, I started it from the command line with the immediate error: Could not find compatible GRE between version 1.9.0.5 and 1.9.0.5. I'm sorry, I'm at a complete loss.

I once had firefox x86_64 installed (because it was the default). But that one has problems with plugins (flash, java), which are much easily solved by using the i386 version. So I unstalled firefox, and installed it again using: yum install firefox.i386 This worked, and even the plugins worked fine afterwards. I did have some problems when uninstalling, because yum insisted on a whole load

This used to work for me last week I basically need to install maven2 along with all its dependencies So I follow the suggestions at http://www.davehodgkinson.com/blog/2011/04/installing-maven-on-a-fresh-redhatcentos-5-5/ Now at the yum update step, I have started seeing lots of HTTP Error 404. Have some of the repos moved? I know a solution is yum clean all and then do yum update but then

Hi, I've just installed xulrunner-devel from yum, but there are following header files cannot be found in xulrunner-sdk-1.9/sdk/include: mozilla-config.h mozilla-config32.h prtypes.h The include/xulrunner-sdk-1.9 constains those above header files, I did link to them, but xulrunner-sdk-1.9/system_wrappers/prtypes.h has a problem as well: #pragma GCC system_header #pragma GCC visibility

In doing an update of centos 5.2 this morning, I observed that the old gecko-libs dependency issue caused yum update to fail because it was required by nspluginwrapper (x64_86), devhelp, yelm and firefox. Also, a firefox (x64_86) showed the red hat splash screen rather than centos. Manual installation of affected rpms using --nodeps (I don't advise this) did not apear to impair the

This package has a build requirement 'gecko-devel' which is fulfilled by 'xulrunner-devel'. But in the process of building the browser plugins two tools named 'xpidl' and 'xpt_link' are necessary. They werde once part of 'gecko-devel' but are now replaced by other tools. I haven't found any package that has these tools all the way back to 5.0. Maybe

Is there a way of installing xulrunner-1.9 along side xulrunner-10.0? I have an application that wants the older version of xulrunner and does not seem to work with xulrunner-10.0. -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 / heller at deepsoft.com Deepwoods Software -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ () ascii ribbon campaign -- against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org -- against

According to 'yum info xulrunner' version 1.9.0.19, release 1.el5_5 exists and is an available package. But when I try to update it, yum claims there is nothing to do and when I try a general update, yum complains that it cannot update firefox because it cannot find xulrunner >= 1.9.0.19-1. What is going on here? I am doing this on a desktop x86_64 system that I recently brought up
