Important Change to mirror.caosity.org, mirror.centos.org
by lance＠uklinux.net 19 May '04

19 May '04

mirror.caosity.org is going to become a cluster of 3 servers - using round-robin dns. all uploads need to be done in future to master.caosity.org which will be the new mirror master - the others will sync off of that one. Please make sure that all scripts etc that do uploading are changed to upload to master.caosity.org Once the rr dns records are in place you may find that you may not be able to upload any more as you may hit the wrong server ...

by John Newbigin 17 May '04

17 May '04

kdelibs-2.2.2-11 has been built and uploaded to the centos mirror. See https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2004-222.html for details. I'll try and get something in place for publishing a pretty looking errata message. Is there anything like that for centos-3?

CentOS-2 Final finally released
by John Newbigin 14 May '04

14 May '04

At long last I have uploaded CentOS-2 Final to the centos mirrors :) Some information on CentOS-2 is available here http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/centos-2/index.htm as well as the caos web site. Surely no one will find any bugs or problems, but if you do, email is better for me ATM than IRC.

New CentOS contrib packages and 3rd party repos
by Lance Davis 13 May '04

13 May '04

A number of new packages are now in the contrib repository including cluster manager, courier-imap, maildrop and piranha - amongst others - thanks to bilbo for these. (we are still waiting for some of the src.rpms) There are also kernels for i586 in the contrib section. contrib packages are supplied by third parties, not (necessarily) tested by CentOS developers and not GPG signed by Centos. contrib is available at http://mirror.centos.org/3.1/contrib and should be on all mirrors. There is also a 3rd party yum repository for CentOS-3 at http://people.best-off.org/~rhel-devel/centos-3/ with lots of perl nodules amongst other stuff. The link above provides details of how to configure yum.conf to use the repo. Dag Wieers also provides a repository of rpms for Rhel3 that will (mostly) work with CentOS - http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/ If you do come across any there that dont work properly then please let either Dag or us know. You can add Dag's repository to your yum.conf by adding :- [dag] name=Dag RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el3/en/$basearch/dag We welcome 3rd party repositories as being a good way of finding additional software for CentOS, however the CentOS developers do not test the packages and cannot provide support for them. We will list 3rd party repositories on the CentOS website and also mirror them where practical/legal . Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.

MC
by Jakub Wojtanowski 13 May '04

13 May '04

I used mc-4.6.0-9.i386.rpm and it worked fine, but I wanted to know why rpm --rebuild didn't work. As for Tom's advice I don't have /etc/popt . Guess I need to create one Best Regards Cooba > I used the following link > ftp://195.220.108.108/linux/redhat/updates/9/en/os/i386/mc-4.6.0-7.9.i386.rp > m which is running fine on my system.
