Re: how to add packages that are not in the repo?
i forgot to ask, how do i get around the 'file dependency' problem? Using yum instead of rpm _may_ resolve the dependencies, if the required packages are part of existing repos. If that doesn't work, you can try searching pbone.net for packages that may resolve the issues. - Bluejay Adametz, CFII, AP, AA-5B, http://wildcorvid.org Stopping at third base adds no more to the score than striking out. - E.

Re: how to add packages that are not in the repo?
thnx for the help! there are a handful of apps that i want to install but i can't find them in the repos. some of them are older files that are no longer supported. i want them because the newer versions don't work as well.

Re: how to add packages that are not in the repo?
Put them all in the same directory and yum should figure it out. If not then I think there was an option called --assist or --aid for the rpm command which will do it but it's been a while. Also remember to check /etc/cron.daily there is a yum autoupdate package that installs by default on 6 and bellow that runs a cronjob to run yum update -y every day you will want to either disable it or install the yum blacklist extension rpm and configure it to prevent it from updating those packages.
