For about a week now yum has tried and failed to update skypeforlinux: Packages skipped because of dependency problems: ??? skypeforlinux-8.10.0.4-1.x86_64 from skype-stable Processing Dependency: libstdc++.so.6(GLIBCXX_3.4.20)(64bit) for package: skypeforlinux-8.10.0.4-1.x86_64 Is there any resolution to this issue?

This error: Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: debug. Please verify its path and try again occurs every time I run yum (and is where execution stops). Why? and/or What can be done to fix yum so I can use it again? tnx. -- War is a failure of the imagination. --William Blake

One of the build options for a laptop I'm looking at buying is DVD vs Blu-Ray. I've never used Blue-ray before, so is there some compelling reason, as a Linux guy, to want to get Blu-ray?

When I do "yum update gmime gmime-sharp" I get: ... --> Missing Dependency: gmime = 2.2.10-5.el5.centos is needed by package gmime-sharp-2.2.10-5.el5.centos.i386 (installed) Error: Missing Dependency: gmime = 2.2.10-5.el5.centos is needed by package gmime-sharp-2.2.10-5.el5.centos.i386 (installed) ... But both of these are already installed: # rpm -q gmime gmime-sharp

Trying to update a second CentOS box, I'm getting this error repeatedly: [Errno 4] Socket Error: timed out I'm getting this on every mirror and have gone through the list of mirrors more than a dozen times. Oddly, the RPMs I'm trying to upgrade I upgraded just yesterday without a problem on another machine on the same LAN with no problems whatsoever. I can ping mirrors fine. There

Though I've worked with enterprise systems, I'm not familiar with FOOS backup software. Which of those recommended would allow me to backup a system while users are active on it? If it matters the system uses LVM. I'd also like to be able to avoid needing the network if possible. That is, I'd plug in a disk into a USB port and backup the system onto that... again, while

I have two HP dc7800 convertible minitowers that are exhibiting the following issue: every 5-10 minutes, they will "freeze" for about 30 seconds, and then pick right back up again. During the freeze, it seems that nothing at all happens on the system; the clock doesn't even advance (it just picks up again with the next second, and that 30-or-so seconds are lost). I've tried both

It's half a nice Saturday later and many attempts have brought no satisfaction. Maybe this can't be done. I'm trying to write a function which, when called from one function execute in another. In itself, that's not the problem. Rather, there's one built-in variable which is evaluated in the function definition and it's value is then set (too early). Here's the one

I searched for libid3-3.8.so.3 with yum: # yum search \*libid3-3.8\* but it returns "No Matches found" Am I not searching correctly, or does this not exist in CentOS 5.7? tnx

Weird. There seems to be quite a bit of software missing from C7.2, gnome-applets being one of them. Or has it been moved or renamed or otherwise obscured? tia

pdftk used to be in a repo... or maybe it still is, but I don't know which one. Anyone know?

Last night installed the latest, firefox-45.6.0-1.el7.centos.x86_64. Fired it up this morning and within the first hour it's crashed three times. That comes to it being usable for about five minutes before it crashes. Anyone else getting this?
