am relly sorry to see that , that great tool is in no repo. As i prefer not to compile anything to continue having the support of
rpms
(with yum) or (at least in my understand) all the upgrade cycle is
broken.
maybe i am not right.
Yes and no. The original source doesn't seem to be maintained for a very long time (3 years or so) anyhow. So even if it was part of an repo, it is unlikely there would be any updates. Unless original author starts working on it again, or somebody else takes over.
Anyhow, if you really want to have it installed as RPM package, it is trivial to create one. To save you some time, just use attached spec file. Put original source (version 0.3.1), the patch from my previous post in this thread, and this spec file into appropriate locations in your build area (by default, directories under /usr/src/redhat), and build the RPM.
Thanks! i will do that way. Guillermo.
