Hi. I just installed CentOS for the first time, to make a BackupPC server.
However, when I try to install BackupPC using yum, I get the error:
No package backuppc available.
I searched the Testing, Extras and CentOS Plus repositories, and found a BackupPC package only in Testing, at
http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/testing/x86_64/RPMS/backuppc-3.1.0-1.el5.cent... which I downloaded directly.
Just posting this in case somebody else has a similar issue.
Best, Aleksey
Do you have any sort of protect base installed?
Priorities, etc?
I could just yum it in when i did it.

What's a protect base?
I added the Test repository to my yum.conf and then I was able to just yum it in. I bet you already had the Test repository in your yum config, dnk.
Thanks for your reply!

Here is what I added to /etc/yum.conf:
[c5-testing] name=CentOS-5 Testing baseurl=http://dev.centos.org/centos/5/testing/x86_64 enabled=1

You need to poke around in the CentOS documentation first - most of the questions you raised are answered there.

Better to use Priorities!
http://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities

Set up the Repositories you want to use and set a Priority for each Repository, to protect your system.
