Hmmm. Okay. Too bad. Thanks for the explanation. However, I did successfully install gnumeric using yum from an RPM I got from freshrpms... a fluke, I guess.
But so mplayer isn't available from CentOS?
I was just looking at a way to prioritize repos so that freshrpms is at the bottom, i.e., so that it's sought only as a last resort: http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities. But the page doesn't quite get me all the way. How do I add an entry for freshrpms to /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo so I can specify a low priority for it?
