Hello,
Is there any package on CentOS 5 which provides perl-libnet? Beartbeat 1 depends on it but so far I couldn't find a package.
Also - is there a way to find which non-installed package contains files with matching names (a-la Debian's apt-file)? I know about "rpm -qf" but it only works on packages which are already installed.
I saw some place mentioning a command called "pin" but I couldn't find it (sort of "chicken and egg"?).
Thanks,

Yum search "name", but it will only look in enabled repos.

Are you sure about that?
The description of "yum search" in the manual says: search Is used to find any packages matching a string in the descrip- tion, summary, packager and package name fields of an rpm. Use- ful for finding a package you do not know by name but know by some word related to it.
It doesn't mention file names.
In case my example from Debian wasn't clear - "apt-file" will allow searching by file-names through all repositories - including installed and uninstalled pacakges.

Sorry-- I fired before I read the entire message. Yum search searches by package name.

That is a suse / centos difference.
You can just remove that require.
If you go back into the vault in the extras directory, you will find a version 1 RPM for centos-4.
You said you had segfaults with the version-2 heartbeat in another thread.
I find this quite uncommon as we have many users of heartbeat.
I am using it on dozens of machines personally.
In the last 5 days from a centos.org mirror a heartbeat rpm has been installed by yum 235 times .. in the last month 1122 times.
We have bout 200 mirrors that are external to us and not monitored logs and only 28 that are monitored, so the number of actual installs could be 6-7 times that amount.
