Is there an RPM for this? I think it's in the kdeedu package on the FC6 DVD. My wife is an amateur astronomer and she uses this excellent program. If upstream isn't including it, can I get it and not break my CentOS 4.4 system? (Also, I'd like to migrate her and my daughter to CentOS). TIA, Lanny

Hi everyone, This just came to my attention --- I have CentOS 7 installed on one machine, and have configured elrepo and epel as additional repositories. When I turned on the yum-priorities package (and set up priorities in the order base&updates < elrepo < epel), it turns out that there are 65 conflicting packages between base and epel, and additional 5 between elrepo and epel (there

Hi, I am totally new to Linux and trying to install R and related tools. I downloaded the rpm files for el4/x86_64 from the CRAN repository and tried to run rpm but it did not go through complaining about dependencies. Do all the listed rpm files need to be installed? What is the order in which these need to be installed? I appreciate any help with this or any suggestions for alternate ways

If you have the epel repo installed and enabled during a yum update, you get java-1.6.0-openjdk-1.6.0.0-1.0.b12.el5.2 instead of the stock .b09 version. Is this intentional and desirable? I thought epel generally did not replace stock components with newer versions. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Hi I just installed CentOS 5.2 (x86_64), and everything was fine. After installing the "epel-release-5-2.noarch.rpm", and issuing "yum check-update", I can see that "epel" is trying to upgrade to version 5.3. First I didn't notice the problem, and after upgrading, I got the message "error sumary" when updating the system. It seems that the x86

I've been informed that rpmforge and epel do not play well together and that if I use both, epel should have the higher (lower numbered) priority. Alas I had it the other way around. rpmforge messed up my effort to get audacity. I no longer need audacity, but would like to fix the situation before some other problem crops up. Would fixing the priorities and telling yum to reinstall all the

May want to check out the new Fedora-Extras-based EPEL repo. There will be overlap with KBS repos (in fact they cite karan.org as an example of rebuilding Fedora Extras packages for EL4), RPMforge, etc. so be wary as of any other 3rd party repo. The Wiki page says "The EPEL repository is not yet publicly available -- we are in the process of creation and initial testing phase.";

Following Fabian's blog post re: RPMForge being rebuilt for EL5, I've a question: Are there any compatibility problems between RPMForge and EPEL? In other words, if I enabled EPEL previously, will I be able to enable RPMForge as well without running into trouble? -- Florin Andrei http://florin.myip.org/
