Dear CentOS Gurus

I have been using "repoforge.org" primarily to obtain two RPMs, "lshw" and "flash-plugin". I recently realized that "repoforge.org" should not be used, as it has had no updates for a long long time. But, when I search for the RPMs within the repos:

<snip> CentOS 7, just updated: yum list lshw Available Packages lshw.x86_64 B.02.17-12.el7 base

Have you tried just yum install lshw?

What can I say. Sometimes the fingers on the keyboard outpace the brain. "DUH" :-)
