firefox-1.5.0.2-2.1.c4.centos.i386.rpm in the testing repo produces this error when running it as non-rrot and also as root Firefox could not install this item because "install.rdf" (provided by the item) is not well formed or does not exist.

Missing binary packages for CentOS 4.3 openCryptoki and iprutils?
by Matthew Miller 19 Apr '06

19 Apr '06

This is a resend of a message from last month which got no response.... iprutils and openCryptoki have source rpms in the CentOS 4.3 / RHEL4u3 update, but there don't appear to be any corresponding binaries. These appear to be new packages in the update (not there before u3, unless I'm confused). Any idea what's going on here? Thanks! -- Matthew Miller mattdm(a)mattdm.org <http://mattdm.org/> Boston University Linux ------> <http://linux.bu.edu/>

CentOS mkinitrd support for dmraid
by Hovhannes Tumanyan 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

Hello, Here is a patch to mkinitrd that enables dmraid initialization during init. I developed it to enable proper initialization of LVM partitions hosted on dmraid based software RAID. dmraid initrd initialization can be optionally turned off by passing --omit-dmraid command line key to mkinitrd. My changes are tested on CentOS 4.1 2.6.9-11.EL kernel. Hopefully this may be useful to people with similar software/hardware configurations. Can someone suggest/clarify if there is anything else I could/should do to make this patch helpful to as many people as possible and ideally make it part of CentOS distribution? Thank you very much, Hovhannes Tumanyan > echo " [--omit-dmraid]" >&2 259a261,263 > --omit-dmraid) > nodmraid=yes > ;; 629a634,637 > if [ -z "$nodmraid" -a "$kernelmajor" == "2.6" ]; then > inst /sbin/dmraid.static "$MNTIMAGE/bin/dmraid" > fi > 710a719,723 > if [ -z "$nodmraid" ]; then > echo "echo Activating software raid (dmraid)" >> $RCFILE > echo "dmraid -ay" >> $RCFILE > fi > 58a59 > echo " [--omit-dmraid]" >&2 259a261,263 > --omit-dmraid) > nodmraid=yes > ;; 629a634,637 > if [ -z "$nodmraid" -a "$kernelmajor" == "2.6" ]; then > inst /sbin/dmraid.static "$MNTIMAGE/bin/dmraid" > fi > 710a719,723 > if [ -z "$nodmraid" ]; then > echo "echo Activating software raid (dmraid)" >> $RCFILE > echo "dmraid -ay" >> $RCFILE > fi >

freenx-0.5.0-8.c4.noarch.rpm is in testing
by Johnny Hughes 14 Apr '06

14 Apr '06

We have created a new version of freenx (freenx-0.5.0-8.c4.noarch.rpm) and moved it to the testing repo. This is based on the code displayed at the LWE in San Francisco ... http://lwn.net/Articles/146825/ http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/8489 (though it is not officially released as stable by the freenx people) This version should handle printing and reconnecting to running sessions much better. Running sessions (on the nx server, that is the machine you are connecting to) are stored in "/var/lib/nxserver/db/running" ... if you have been disconnected in the past, there may be several old sessions out there that need to be cleaned up ... go remove the sessions that are invalid (all of them in that directory if you do not have any open sessions to that server). There is no real auto cleanup of these if your session breaks ... I will try to develop something that works later. In the meantime, if you session list is to big and some are dead, you will have to delete them manually. This version also allows rootless mode, which is faster compression. So far, this is a major improvement to my user experience for NX. ------------------ Copy the testing CentOS-Testing.repo file from here: http://dev.centos.org/centos/4/ to /etc/yum.repos.d/ , then use this command to install freenx: yum --enablerepo=c4-testing install freenx nx Report issues with this to the freeenx tracker here: http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=1307 ------------------- A guide for setting up the NoMachine client (to connect to the freenx server, if you installed it) is here: http://fedoranews.org/contributors/rick_stout/freenx/ (you only need to do the client items, as the server is taken care of with the above yum install). Thanks, Johnny Hughes

BackupPC in the Testing Repo
by Johnny Hughes 10 Apr '06

10 Apr '06

We have added BackupPC for CentOS 4 into the testing repository at dev.centos.org. The version of BackupPC is 2.12 including the p1 patchset of Feb 2006. Here is the documentation for BackupPC: http://backuppc.sourceforge.net/faq/BackupPC.html Copy the testing CentOS-Testing.repo file from here: to /etc/yum.repos.d/ , then use this command to install backuppc: yum --enablerepo=c4-testing install backuppc yum may bring in other dependencies like samba-client, samba-common, perl-Archive, perl-Compress, perl-File-Rsync, httpd, mod_perl, etc. -------------------------------------------------------- This version of BackupPC uses mod_perl and requires editing of the /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file and changing the User and Group from apache to backuppc, so that they look like this: User=backuppc Group=backuppc This may cause some other programs to require setup changes. In fact, it is recommended that the backup machine serve no other web sites except the backuppc CGI interface. You must start httpd and backuppc prior to accessing the backuppc site using this command: service httpd start service backuppc start Then you can access the web interface with: http://127.0.0.1/backuppc/ The default username and password are: username: admin password: admin Please click on the "Documentation" Link on the left frame and then click the "CentOS README" link for more setup information. (The README.centos file is also in /usr/share/doc/backuppc-2.1.2/ after install). ----------------------------------------------------------- Please report positive and negative feedback to our BackupPC tracker here: http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=1299 With enough positive feedback, this will be moved into the extras repository for CentOS. Thanks, Johnny Hughes

compat-gcc-32-c++-3.2.3-47.3 and 3.3.2 support
by J.J.Garcia 05 Apr '06

05 Apr '06

Hi all, 4.3/rh release is shipping compat-gcc-32-c++-3.2.3-47.3 which i can see includes 3.2.3 & 3.3.4 support but if i need support for 3.3.2 libstdc++ what should i do? I've searched for compat pkgs and no one has 3.3.3 support, im wondering if installing 3.3.2 gcc tools from gnu sources is a good idea or check if 3.3.2 rpm for this exists. Is that compat-* pkgs something related to RH only? TIA Jose
