Hi all,
Advance apologies for being slightly OT.
Has anyone had successes with installing gphpedit on CentOS 5? There don't seem to be any rpms avail for our distro and I'm far too new to roll my own.
Thanks in advance (off - list replies are welcome if that's more appropriate)

You might try RPMs for Fedora Core 7 (not a perfect match, but maybe close enough): ftp://rpmfind.net/linux/fedora/releases/7/Everything/i386/os/Fedora/gphpedit-0.9.91-3.fc6.i386.rpm
Otherwise, try building the RPM yourself, it's not that hard.
Basically, create a file named ~/.rpmmacros with this content:
%_topdir %(eval echo "$HOME")/rpm
Then create the directories:
$ mkdir -p ~/rpm/{BUILD,RPMS/`uname -m`,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}
Then:
$ rpmbuild --rebuild packagename.src.rpm
In that case, try building the package for Fedora Core 9: ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/Packages/gphpedit-0.9.91-4.fc9.src.rpm

Hi Filipe,
Thank you *Very* much for the information. I'd already successfully found and installed an rpm for FC6, but I'm really glad to have your reply as 'rolling my own' is definitely something I have to do from time to time and I'm very very very new at this.
Kind regards, -Ray
