Hi all, Was installing centos 6 and found this: ./CentOS-5.6-x86_64/CentOS/gtk+-1.2.10-56.el5.i386.rpm ./CentOS-5.6-x86_64/CentOS/gtk+-devel-1.2.10-56.el5.i386.rpm ./CentOS-5.6-x86_64/CentOS/gtk+-devel-1.2.10-56.el5.x86_64.rpm ./CentOS-5.6-x86_64/CentOS/gtk+-1.2.10-56.el5.x86_64.rpm ./CentOS-6.0-x86_64/Packages/gtk+extra-2.1.1-13.el6.i686.rpm ./CentOS-6.0-x86_64/Packages/gtk+extra-devel-2.1.1-13.el6.x86_64.rpm ./CentOS-6.0-x86_64/Packages/gtk+extra-2.1.1-13.el6.x86_64.rpm ./CentOS-6.0-x86_64/Packages/gtk+extra-devel-2.1.1-13.el6.i686.rpm Where is gtk+?

Re: [CentOS] Anaconda install groups vs yumgroups?

There is no magic behind. yum grouplist > lists all available and installed groups (sorted) This does not appear to be true. If it was I would not have posted at all or maybe I am just confused. For example, in anaconda there is an install group called "Minimal Desktop" If I look in the comps.xml in the centos repo there is no such group. There is also a Minimal group that does not appear in comps. All I am trying to do is understand the relationship between the groups listed in anaconda and in comps.xml. Does anaconda use a different comps.xml? Regards, -- Tom Diehl tdiehl(a)rogueind.com Spamtrap address mtd123(a)rogueind.com

centOS6 ipa-client update
by David 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

Using FreeIPA Server V2 and began testing against CentOS6 since it has a better support for SSSD. Ran into an issue with importing a Kerberos keytab to the new host and the FreeIPA folks indicated this is a known bug that was fixed in RHEL5.6: http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2011-0832.html The new IPA client is ipa-client-2.0-10.el5_6.1. Any idea when this will make it into the CentOS6 repo? David

Your script should take care of this. One thing to watch out for is if the script is running and you use a lockfile to exit from a 2nd one running, the original script won't get the message about the 2nd file. Maybe that matters for this application, maybe not. -☙ Brian Mathis ❧-

Easy switch from Fedora 14 to CentOS 6??
by Beartooth 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

Of course I can switch, I know, by brute force : just install CentOS over top of Fedora. But that would require a tedious day (of manually re-tweaking panels, adding & removing software, etc. ad nauseam, *and* transferring a backup copy of my data back onto the machine) -- which I'd prefer to avoid. What I want to do, if I can, is emulate the upgrades I've been doing with each new release of Fedora. I'm hoping, since the like can be done from SL, maybe it can also be done from Fedora. (Minor footnote: if Fedora has any browser I don't run, it's an oversight on my part. I realize most aren't available, or at least not as rpms, for CentOS; I'm willing to make that sacrifice.) -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User I have precious (very precious!) little idea where up is.

Switch from SL -> Centos
by Nicolas Ross 12 Jul '11

12 Jul '11

For those interested, I switched a SL 6 desktop I use at my desk to CentOS 6 without a hurt... Did : Downloaded centos-release-6-0.el6.centos.5.x86_64.rpm and redhat-logos-60.0.14-10.el6.noarch.rpm from CentOS repo rpm -e --nodeps sl-release redhat-logos rpm -hiv redhat-logos-60.0.14-10.el6.noarch.rpm centos-release-6-0.el6.centos.5.x86_64.rpm yum update reboot, and voilà The only thing I noted, is that the boot screen (the image that covers the init scripts) is still centos, but the shutdown one is centos' Have fun and thanks for that great long awaited release. Regards,
