Sorry to reply while I am not an expert in SL, but why using FC6 repos with RHEL5? I wouldn't do that and expect dependencies to be solved! AFAICT, you can use all the SL5 repos, including the clones of DAG/Dries and ATrpms (and Flash), plus: -- Karanbir's <http://centos.karan.org/>: # All new packages are now released to the testing repository first # and only moved into Stable after a period of time [kbs-CentOS-Extras] name=CentOS.Karan.Org-EL$releasever - Stable gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://centos.karan.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-karan.org.txt enabled=1 baseurl=http://centos.karan.org/el$releasever/extras/stable/$basearch/RPMS/ [kbs-CentOS-Testing] name=CentOS.Karan.Org-EL$releasever - Testing gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://centos.karan.org/RPM-GPG-KEY-karan.org.txt enabled=1 baseurl=http://centos.karan.org/el$releasever/extras/testing/$basearch/RPMS/ -- CentOS Extras and centosplus (centos-addons is empty as of yet): [centos-extras] name=CentOS 5 Extras mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=extras #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/extras/$basearch/ #baseurl=ftp://ftp.belnet.be/mirrors/ftp.centos.org/5/extras/i386/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 [centosplus] name=CentOS 5 Plus mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=centosplus #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/centosplus/$basearch/ #baseurl=ftp://ftp.belnet.be/mirrors/ftp.centos.org/5/centosplus/i386/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=0 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-centos4 -- EPEL: [epel] name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 5 - $basearch #baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/$basearch mirrorlist=http://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/mirrorlist?repo=epel-5&arch=$basearch failovermethod=priority enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL [epel-testing] name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 5 - Testing - $basearch baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/testing/5/$basearch failovermethod=priority enabled=0 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-- Note that Jpackage.org only has packages for RHEL4, not for RHEL5 yet (would you like to mess with packages for FC6?!) http://www.jpackage.org/jpackage.repo > running SL takes nearly 300 MB.
