similar to: 32 bit vs 64 bit advice requested

I am trying to get the x86_64 isos of CentOS-5.2. I wish to use bittorrent. The last time that I did this I required the bittorent package from Dag's repository. I have configured /etc/yum.repos.d/DagWieers.repo thus: [dag] name=Dag Wieers RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux #Also see URL http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/

Dear CentOS Gurus I have been using "repoforge.org" primarily to obtain two RPMs, "lshw" and "flash-plugin". I recently realized that "repoforge.org" should not be used, as it has had no updates for a long long time. But, when I search for the RPMs within the repos: base centosplus contrib epel extras updates the lshw program is nowhere to

Hello, all - I wanted to know your guys' success rate when installing and rebuilding RPMs in CentOS (specifically 4.0) that have come from Dag's Repositories (http://dag.wieers.com/packages/). I have noticed a number of these packages stalling at various points throughout an rpmbuild process, and I can't quite get it. It looks almost as if they were all built for RHEL4.0, but if

Hi gang! I'm trying to update my videolan client (0.8.4a-4.el4.rf) to the latest 0.8.6 version. I see that Dag has a 0.8.6 for EL4 (I'm running Centos 4.4) but when I do "yum update videolan-client" it says there's nothing to update. When I remove the videolan client than do "yum install videolan-client" it insists on trying to install the 0.8.4 version:

Hi, What happened to dag.wieers? There is an update for clamav but the rpm is still not distibuted after 4 weeks or more. :-) What's wrong there?

I was checking out Dag's ( not dagw ;-> ) new blog... I don't know how much, if at all, this has been debated... http://dag.wieers.com/blog/using-apt-in-an-rpm-world if he is so adamant about apt over yum, why are we using yum still? Laziness? ;-) ...or are we just tasty food centric? Yum yum yum !!! - rh

Hi, I receive this error when rsyncing. I suspect this is because of network problems. But the 'Invalid argument' and 'phase unknown' makes it very unobvious. ... packages/scribus/scribus-1.2.3-0.rf.src.rpm Read from remote host rsync.sw.be: Invalid argument rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 32768 bytes: phase "unknown" [sender]: Broken pipe (32) rsync:

Hello. I have been trying to add rpmforge as a repository, but yum does not seem to be updating the package lists. I tried $ yum check-updates [...] Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: <mirror> * epel: <mirror> * extras: <mirror> * rpmforge: mirror.ate.info * updates: <mirror> and searched for any package available there, like i3 and mpv. It is still like

Hi all, The CentOS community is pretty limited in what we can do to the core distribution. Since our mantra is "aiming to be 100% compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux" we cannot fix bugs or improve the CentOS core without waiting for Red Hat to make those modifications first. We have limited leverage and a 6-month release cycle against us. But that is not the complete truth,

Hi! I am trying to to ask the packagers from repoforge for updated packages of ganglia and rrdtool and i got no answer on their mail list.. Does anyone have idea if repoforge is still active? Thanks! Adrian

On delving deeper into Miredo support, it seems that Miredo Server is a separate program from the Miredo client/relay. And that there is no Miredo Server available for Centos 6. Not in EPEL 6, or repoforge. So far the maintainer of Miredo for Fedora/EPEL has not reponded to a query on its status for EPEL 6. I have to ask on repoforge about miredo-server. Anyone know of anywhere else to

Hi all, I've just migrated my mail system from procmail to managesieve/sieve and I'm having trouble trying to duplicate a could of rules I used to use in my procmail config.

Hi folks, I hope this is the right mailing list to ask since on the repoforge website there is no list or contact information. I have a problem with updating the perl-Nagios-Plugin package. I have installed perl-Nagios-Plugin-0.33-1.el6.rf.noarch, and running yum update leads to: > Error: Package: perl-Nagios-Plugin-0.35-1.el6.rf.noarch (rpmforge) > Requires:

A screenshot editor needs to do a few things - but it must do these three things easily and well: 1. Draw curved and straight arrows, dotted or solid line, with various end dots and points 2. Draw open circles of various shapes to highlight areas of interest 3. Text easily without having to pre-define a bounding box for the ad-hoc text By far, the most powerful easy-to-use freeware screenshot

Can you recommend a PHP accellerator that works with my CentOS 4.2 64-bit version? If it's possible, I'd like to find one that is actively updated. Thanks, Ron Jones Alpharetta, GA

I want to install TinyCA2 on my Centos5 setup. I had a real learning experience the last time around (last year, July) and in the end, I got the repo down from Dag's site and was cool. Now I am on Centos 5 and no TinyCA2. Can I just download the EL4 rpm from: http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/repodata/repoview/tinyca2-0-0.7.5-2.el4.rf.html and do a yum localinstall ? Or do I have
