--- Comment #6 from Kenneth Porter <[email protected]> 2010-01-31 04:59:37 UTC --- I mention RPMForge because a number of CentOS users use that repo instead of EPEL, and have avoided using Warren's package because of its apparent dependency on the "rival" repo. I wanted to demonstrate that it works fine, at least when repackaged from source, with the RPMForge packages. A good rule of thumb is never to mix CPAN and native packaging, and this should be mentioned in the SA wiki if it's not already. CPAN and native packaging each keep their own database of installed packages, and each database is unaware of the other. That means that the dependency checking of one system can't use the install list of the other, and will attempt to install files that the other system may already have in place, creating chaos. If you use an RPM-based system and want to install software that's not available as an RPM, ask the people at RPMForge and EPEL for help in wrapping it in an RPM. The process isn't particularly difficult. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
