ok i have the three main iso's of the centos 3.3 distribution. all three discinfo files are exactly the same. So does this mean i can just combine the files and go? -- My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.

Newer GnuPG (S)RPMS?
by Henk van Lingen 04 Nov '04

04 Nov '04

Hi, Has anyone newer GnuPG (S)RPMs than the one coming with CentOS (gnupg-1.2.1-10). That one obviously has problems (for example: it doesn't recognize new signatures on keys when doing 'gpg --import keysfile'). I tried to build new packages from various SRPMs from the Fedora distros. The builds went oke, however, after installing them (no complaining debs) this error occurs when using gpg: gpg: relocation error: gpg: undefined symbol: strlwr Regards, -- Henk van Lingen, Systems & Network Administrator (o- -+ Dept. of Computer Science, Utrecht University. /\ | phone: +31-30-2535278 v_/_ http://henk.vanlingen.net/ http://www.tuxtown.net/netiquette/

Update ?
by JD. Brown 03 Nov '04

03 Nov '04

I realize that up2date and yum are two different methods of updating with CentOS. My question is this? I updated my yum signature key. Downloaded all required updates and now up2date still complains of 500 more updates after the initial count was 514. Should I worry about this or what hack is known to fix this? I looked around the web and only found people talking about "Yum" and only one site making referenecs of fixing up2date with no follow ups. I'm just concerned about this? Other than that, I'm very happy with CentOS. Thank You, JD. Brown

In response to my other thread..could i use winiso to extract all three iso's then just use nero to make a new dvd iso of the files(after editing the .discinfo file)? I am going to give it a try in the next few days..hope it works..<G> -- My "Foundation" verse: Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.

should cAos block access to mirror.caosity.org?
by Rick Graves 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

Hey, Greg suggested that I take a straw poll. Should cAos take steps to prevent getting stuck with a big ISP bill in the future? For example, should cAos: a) for new installs, have the yum.conf point to public mirrors, rather than to mirror.caosity.org? b) make sure that "yum update" does not substitute a new yum.conf file that points only to mirror.caosity.org? c) allow public mirrors to access mirror.caosity.org directly, but block direct access by everyone else? On the other hand, do the benefits of allowing direct access to mirror.caosity.org by everyone outweigh the costs of occasionally big ISP bills? Feel free to express your views, Greg is listening.

Newer LAMP Components
by Johnny Hughes 02 Nov '04

02 Nov '04

I have been working on newer LAMP components for CentOS / WBEL in response to a post in my forums, and I have completed the following components for those who want try some newer stuff: httpd-2.0.52-3 php-5.0.2-1.EL MySQL-4.1.7-0 Details on how to compile them yourself and how to install are on my forum: http://www.hughesjr.com/component/option,com_forum/Itemid,65/page,viewtopic… I don't necessarily intend to maintain these programs by doing security updates although the complete build process including all dependencies required to build each SRPM is included in the forum. I am NOT using these in production, but I am using them on an intranet test server with Mambo installed. So far, no real problems. ----------------------- Johnny Hughes <http://www.HughesJR.com/>
