Yes thanks - I should have been clearer about the variations I have tried. The
suffix seems to be immaterial and I get the same result whether it is used or
not. And no spaces in the wrong places, I think!
I still think that the issue is one of other necessary repositories being
defined incorrectly somewhere....

Subject: Re: [PacketFence-users] Finding the Installer...
The name of the packetfence repo, if you followed the instructions and/or copy
and pasted the repo file from the instructions, is just PacketFence, not
PacketFence.repo. So your command should look like this:
yum groupinstall --enablerepo=PacketFence,epel,rpmforge,of Packetfence-complete
not this:
yum groupinstall --enablerepo=PacketFence.repo,epel,rpmforge,of
Packetfence-complete
Also, it looks like you might have a space between the comma after
"PacketFence.repo" and "epel" and that would also cause a problem so make sure
it's not there in your actual command.

I have been round in circles trying to get PacketFence to install, failing each
time at the (almost) final fence: the installation of the package itself.
This is a CentOS 6 system, fully updated, and with all dependencies addressed
so far as I am able at this point.
So far as I can determine from internet resources, I have set up software
repositories correctly, but still, the installation process cannot find the
installer - so either it has been moved, or there is some distant corner of the
galaxy that this system is still not finding. The server is behind firewalls
etc, but I'm not clear why that should be a problem given that I have managed
to find and install everything else.
[also, I have tried different capitalisation of the installer: Packetfence,
packetfence, PacketFence... it is reported differently on various web resources]
Using the command in the following form, with system response:

Please advise - how are the repositories supposed to be defined, and in what
files would you expect them to be defined? There's clearly something missing
still....
Thank you,
