[CentOS] gdisk dependancy problem

I agree. I don't know why it is trying to pull an el5 from the 6 repository.

I was able to fix this by doing:

wget http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/srs5694/CentOS_CentOS-6/x86_64/gdisk-0.8.6-117.1.x86_64.rpm

and then:

yum -Ivh gdisk-0.8.6-117.1.x86_64.rpm


Something somewhere is broken. I have no idea what. But I do have gdisk installed and working now.

Thanks,
-= Bruce

Sorry, I haven't been following this thread, but from just the above, it
*looks* as though you're trying to install an el5 package, gdisk, on a el6 system, and yum complains, and rightfully so.
