Hi List,
This morning while setting up C6 on my laptop this morning I attempted to download and install Yumex, but the repos returned no results for this package. Has this been discontinued and if so, what package manager should I be looking for?
thanks,
Mark
YumEx is in the EPEL repository

surely there is a gui package manager in the default rhel/centos 6 kit ? (I hardly ever use gui so I wouldn't know)
PackageKit.
In GNOME, it's System->Administration->Add/Remove Software

I'd go for Smart Package Manager if it's available on Centos 6?
yum info smart*

Smart is little different and uses different conf files then yum if I am not mistaken.
Correct Ljubomir. But most of the repo installation packages install both yum and smart config files. Smart calls them channels, and it's not hard to convert a yum repo file to a Smart channel file.
you can see my PHP script for doing this here:

but it's virtually redundant now.
Kind Regards,
