Hello, I cannot reproduce the problem, I tested the repository and it works for me. Repository metadata is generated automatically, so there's not much I can do. Have you tried issuing a "yum clean all" and retrying? 5.2 is very old and unsupported even by the 5.2.z channel upstream, I think you might need to update to at least 5.3 to get the sha256sums used in the "new" (from 2009 onwards) createrepo that's in RHEL: http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS5.3 http://skvidal.wordpress.com/2009/02/19/yum-createrepo-hashlib-rhel5centos5-and-sha256sums/ I suggest you to upgrade to 5.7, but if you want to update yum/rpm only just follow the first steps in the CentOS 5.3 release notes. BTW; I made a few changes to the repository, they are in the changelogs. Regards, --Simone -- You cannot discover new oceans unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore (R. W.
