You can grab the Net::SSLeay rpm from here: http://dag.wieers.com/packages/perl-Net-SSLeay/perl-Net-SSLeay-1.25-1.1.el3… Don't use cpan, it will just cause pain... John.

no qmake on CentOS-3
by Rick Graves 21 Nov '04

21 Nov '04

Hey, I need, but do not find anywhere, qmake, a program that comes with qt and is normally found in the bin directory under qt. In addition to using CentOS-3 on text-only servers, I am using CentOS-3 as an X desktop distribution (it lookes exactly like RedHat 9 to me). On one of my desktop systems, I want to try eric3, an IDE (integrated development environment) for python. During the CentOS install originally, I chose both the Gnome and KDE options. The installation instructions for eric3 say install qt first, then QScintilla. qt is already installed. QScintilla needs qmake to install, but qmake is not there or anywhere. Is there a way to put qmake under qt where it belongs? Thanks, Rick

Centos uses that version because tht is what RHEL uses..:) They backport the fixes so the version numbers do not always mean that much(except to programs that look at version numbers of course..<G>) Dave Augustus wrote: > Why is RH using such an outdated version of OpenSSL ? > > I understand that they may have back-ported the fix but I just tried > installing Net::SSLeay on a Centos 3.3 box and it wouldn't install, saying > that the openssl version was old and suggested I get 9.7b or later? > > How are you handling this problem?

openssl-0.9.7a-33.12
by Dave Augustus 19 Nov '04

19 Nov '04

Why is RH using such an outdated version of OpenSSL ? I understand that they may have back-ported the fix but I just tried installing Net::SSLeay on a Centos 3.3 box and it wouldn't install, saying that the openssl version was old and suggested I get 9.7b or later? How are you handling this problem? I am resorting to recompiling OpenSSL 9.7d . Thanks, Dave

Re: [Centos] why developers got stuck with huge ISP bill
by Matt Shields 17 Nov '04

Hi Everyone, I'm new here. I just caught this thread and checked my yum.conf. It does indeed point to the main mirror. May I suggest that the default yum.conf file contain a links to some of the public mirrors, or none at all instead of the main mirror. That way, it doesn't point to the main mirror, which would be reserved for public mirrors. Then in the Docs show an example yum.conf that shows what is acceptable. Another suggestion would be to put a few public mirrors in the yum.conf file and comment them out. Then put in a comment saying "Here are a few public mirrors, but you can get mirrors closer to you by looking at http://www.centos.org/download/mirrors" Matt Shields > On Sat, 6 Nov 2004 15:34:53 -0800 (PST), Rick Graves > <gravesricharde(a)yahoo.com> wrote: > > Lance, > > > > Let's go at this from another angle. > > > > > I am absolutely certain having analysed the logs > > > that the excess bandwidth was caused by people > > > downloading .iso images for centos from our > > > master mirror(s) .... > > > > How could this happen? > > > > Here is my explanation: > > > > 1) As far as I am aware, the cAos site does NOT ask > > distro users to download from public mirrors, rather > > than from the master mirror. > > > > 2) On install, yum.conf points to the master mirror. > > > > 3) Even if a distro user puts in a custom yum.conf > > file that points to a public mirror, "yum update" can > > remove the custom yum.conf file, and put in its place > > a yum.conf that points to the master mirror. > > > > 4) From 2 & 3, I got the impression that it is OK, > > even encouraged, to download directly from the master > > mirror.
