Re: [CentOS] You didn't give me some packages, so now I'm giving you some! R, TexLive, LyX, Gnumeric, etc.

I want up-to-dateish versions of TexLive, R, gnumeric, emacs, but on a more-or-less stable base of Centos-5.2. I asked for packages in this, but got no answers. So now I've built them and will let you try them if you want. I used the source packages from Fedora 8 and 9.

You might want to take a look at joining up with rpmrepo for distribution of packages. Folks are (sometimes with good reason) reluctant to use packages from individuals. Rpmforge/rpmrepo are respected repositories, and you'll be able to take advantage of plenty of developer expertise.
