[CentOS] Exception error with 5.5 installation

2011-04-08 Thread Kaplan, Andrew H.
Hi there --

I am trying to install the 64-bit version onto one of our servers. When I get to
the point
of loading various software packages, I normally select KDE desktop, and also
make 
sure that CentOS extras is also selected. Once that is done, I click on Next to
have
the installation continue.

Every attempt that I have made has resulted in an exception error occurring with
the
python packages. As a result, the installation fails. I have not been able to
install 
CentOS since this problem started occurring. 

Does anyone know of a way I can get around this problem? Thanks.

Please make sure you *do not* select CentOS Extra.

Patient: Doctor, it hurts when I do this.

Doctor: Don't do that!

Known issue.  That has been removed in 5.6.  Do not try to use the 
extras repo at install time.
