7-Zip for CentOS X86-64
by Mark LaPierre 12 Mar '15

12 Mar '15

Hey Y'all, I'm looking at ZCad: http://sourceforge.net/projects/zcad/?source=directory It looks like the kind of 3D CAD package that I've been looking for. It says that it works on Linux but it's zipped with 7-Zip which doesn't seem to be available for CentOS. Does anyone know if ZCAD or 7-Zip is packaged for CentOS X86-64 somewhere out there? -- _ °v° /(_)\ ^ ^ Mark LaPierre Registered Linux user No #267004 https://linuxcounter.net/ ****

cobbler reposync fails when accessing the CentOS 6 extras repos
by Binet, Valere (NIH/NIA/IRP) [C] 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

Hi everyone, We are updating local repos from different mirrors using cobbler reposync. This has been working fine for the longest time but started to fail a few days ago (see below for failure details). I first try to use a different mirror but that didn¹t help. This morning, I modified cobbler to disable the auto-update for the centos/6/extras/i386/ and centos/6/extras/x86_64/ repos. After that the reposync worked like a charm. Is there a problem with the CentOS 6 extras repos? Is someone on this list in charge of them? If not, who should I contact? Thank you in advance for your help.

Glibc sources?
by ANDY KENNEDY 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

All, Please excuse any ignorance in this e-mail as I am not a RH/CentOS/Fedora user and may blunder my way through the correct terminology for my request. I'm tasked with reconstructing the CentOS version of the GlibC library for testing with gethostbyname(). My mission is to show that we are not affected by the latest exploit for the product we are shipping targeted for RHEL and CentOS. To do so, I want to equip gethostbyname() with additional code. My objective is to rebuild from source the EXACT version of GlibC for CentOS 6.6. Afterwards, I will make my changes in the code, rebuild and complete my testing. libc.so.6 reports: GNU C Library stable release version 2.12, by Roland McGrath et al.

But, when looking through the source code for this version on the CentOS servers I only see: <http://vault.centos.org/6.6/updates/Source/SPackages/> [ ] glibc-2.12-1.149.el6_6.4.src.rpm 07-Jan-2015 22:45 15M [ ] glibc-2.12-1.149.el6_6.5.src.rpm 27-Jan-2015 23:13 15M Please point me to the correct source tarball, and all required patches so that I can reconstruct my loaded version of GlibC. A yum command is also acceptable. Thanks, Andy

[OT] Wireshark and TLS
by James B. Byrne 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

I am trying to debug a comm-problem between Jitsi running on my CentOS-6.6 workstation and Asterisk running on A CentOS-6.5 based distro from FreePBX. I want to view the contents of the following parts of the TLS session setup: CLIENT_HELLO, SERVER_HELLO and CHANGE_CIPHERSPEC. However, I have no idea how to actually do this with Wireshark. I would like some guidance on how to proceed if someone would be so kind. -- *** E-Mail is NOT a SECURE channel *** James B.

SquidAnalyzer: minor trouble building RPM
by Niki Kovacs 11 Mar '15

11 Mar '15

Hi, I'm using the SquidAnalyzer network analysis tool in combination with Squid. Up until now, I've been running Slackware Linux on my servers. I built a custom package that installs SquidAnalyzer to /var/www/vhosts/squidreport/html. Then I setup an Apache virtual host for SquidAnalyzer's pages. Since I'm migrating my servers from Slackware to CentOS, I'd like to build a corresponding RPM package for SquidAnalyzer. I downloaded the sources here: http://squidanalyzer.darold.net/download.html Then I set up a local build environment as described in the CentOS wiki. The source tarball already contains a squidanalyzer.spec file in the packaging/RPM subdirectory. So I copied that spec file over to ~/rpmbuild/SPECS and the source tarball to ~/rpmbuild/SOURCES. The version information in the spec file is wrong, it indicates 6.2, but the version of SquidAnalyzer is 6.2-1. Unfortunately when I insert the correct version in the spec file, I get this: $ rpmbuild -ba --clean squidanalyzer.spec error: line 5: Illegal char '-' in: Version: 6.2-1 What can I do now?

Running the Wine emulator on CentOS 7
by Niki Kovacs 10 Mar '15

10 Mar '15

Hi, Up until recently, I've been running Wine 1.6.2 on my workstation under Slackware64 14.1. I used it to emulate a handful of legacy apps that ran under Windows XP. They worked perfectly with that setup. After migrating the workstation from Slackware to CentOS 7, I installed the Wine packages, but none of my applications run. I only get an error message about "wrong EXE format". And that's it. Any idea what's going on?
