similar to: CentOS 5.1 - equivalent of xorg-x11 ?

Folks I have encountered a situation with YUM that isn't what I expected. Let's suppose I want to install a group, call it G. My first question would be -- is the group already installed. Realize all of this is scripted. So, I use yum groupinfo and I see the list of installed groups, and those not yet installed. If group G is in the list of installed groups, one would think that

Hi All, Short description of the problem: - I would like to install the complete 'xfce' desktop on CentOS5.x I've tried: yum groupinstall xfce yum groupinstall xfce4 yum groupinstall xfce* yum groupinstall xfce4* yum groupinstall xfce4.2 yum groupinstall xfce4.1 yum groupinstall xfce4.3 yum groupinstall xfce4.4 yum groupinstall xfce4.4.2 .... etc etc ... nothing worked then I've

The main difficulty in enabling that is making sure that puppet doesn''t run ''yum groupinstall'' (or ''yum groupupdate'') on every run. To avoid that,

Hi all, I have a question related to yum groupinstall. I just tried a: yum groupinstall "MySQL Database" I expected that I would end up with a MySQL Database server, but it installed a bunch of .rpms *except* mysql-server. No big deal, I'm just curious if it was intended this way or not, that's all. Thank you and, Have a nice evening everyone, Alex

I did a minimal install and then with yum groupinstall, installed http, ftp and samba servers. However the gui server settings are not displayed for these servers. Is there a package that I need to install or do I need to change a setting(s) in a file? In reading "man yum" I did not see a way to find out what rpm's are installed with each group, or maybe I just did not

I want to install Xfce on a ClearOS server. They have not defined any desktop groups (actually no groups other than minimal). But lots of Xfce rpms are in their repos. How can I see what rpms Centos would install with a 'yum group install'? Then I get to install vnc server and set up the client right... thanks

1. There are updates to CentOS-4Beta for the i386 and x86_64 arches. The following RPMS have been changed: a. createrepo-0.4.2-1.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. b. yum-2.1.13-1.c4.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. c. firefox-1.0-6.centos4.3.i386.rpm - The original build did not strip the library files of unnecessary symbols, causing

Hi, One nice thing I have with Debian is the possibility to have a really stripped-down install of things. Let's take an example. I want a cholesterol-free install of GNOME, I 'apt-get install gnome-core' which gives me the bare working minimum of GNOME as a starting point, and then I install what I really need. The same thing applies for KDE, with 'apt-get install

Hi All, Cent OS 5.3. I need to install the gcc toolchain, but what yum packages is this? I need to compile ProFTPD, etc, etc. I tried yum install gcc, what else? -Jason

I need a DNS server in a test environment, so I am adding Bind to my notebook build. I first did: yum install bind rebooted yum update rebooted Now I see named as a service I can start. But when I go to /var/named to edit the files (btw, all I want to do at this point is to fake out a FQDN expected by a piece of gear), none exist. And I doubt that if I start named it would be properly

Hi - Looking at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5703758 I have just tried this on a fully patched 6.4 box and it seems vulnerable - Do other see the same? thanks

The readme states as requirement that XFree86-devel be installed for RedHat boxes. I'm running FC4 which doesn't use XFree-86 but xorg-x11. Are these equivalent, and will the installation of xorg-x11-devel meet the installation requirments? -- Claude Jones Bluemont, VA, USA
