Hi,
I tried to tweak my yum.conf in order to skip this passage but it did
Okay, you may skip yum and download the RPM packages for Midgard only instead. When you do have your Fedora Core CDs available, it should be possible to do it without web access available.
You will need:
- glib - expat - mysql - httpd - php - perhaps pcre and more php-modules, depending on what you need
In case you are trying to rebuild the source packages, you will need:
- gcc, m4, make - glib, glib-devel - expat, expat-devel - pcre, pcre-devel - apr, apr-devel, apr-util, apr-util-devel, httpd, httpd-devel - php, php-devel
As long as I can see, in order to install Midgard you must have both a working installation of Debian or Fedora AND a ADSL connection
line. Any other solution does not actually work.
There are other solutions, even without DSL you can do it. Try my hint from above with getting all dependencies from the installation media and go ahead. It is a longer list of rpm -ivh commands which needs to be done, but no need for yum or apt-get to get it working.
Okay, now to get going: get your Fedora Core installation media and put the RPMs onto your system, then get the signing key for the FC2 packages from
http://www.puv.fi/download/midgard/fedora/2/i386/RPM-GPG-KEY
Then get the Midgard packages from
http://www.puv.fi/download/midgard/fedora/2/i386/RPMS.stable/
if you did not already download these and try running
$ su # rpm -ivh midgard-core-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm # rpm -ivh midgard-apache2-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm # rpm -ivh midgard-php4-1.6.2-1.i386.rpm # rpm -ivh midgard-data-1.6.2-1.noarch.rpm
Any dependencies for these should be on your Fedora Core 2 discs.
