@Wash Well,I'm not serikal but let me try n help! :) Solution 1 Have you tried to update the system first before the installation i.e yum update?You could start there then go on to install the said packages. Solution two If you need to add a new repository on CentOs... Every repository has a .repo file that you need to download and set up in the repository directory on your machine.Therefore... 1.0 su 2.0 cd /etc/yum.repos.d/ 3.0 wget http://long-url-ya-repository-yako/example.repo Then you need to set up RPM signing keys which should also be available on the website or repository.Therefore... rpm - -import http://long-url-ya-repository-yako/example.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-example.com.txt Complete the process by running an update i.e ... yum update Check whether the repository has been added and enabled i.e...yum repolist Go ahead to install your packages from the new repository. Bingo!!!You are now a CentOS guru as well! :) On 5 March 2012 12:51, Bernard Owuor <b_owuor@yahoo.com> wrote:
Have you tried:
yum install gcc-c++
I got this off a bing search.

I must admit I am just lazy with this one. I could google, but I hope asking here might yield a faster response... good or bad...
On a Linux box, I am playing with modifying dd-wrt firmware. I need to install certain dev tools, so the command I am running is:
evilhost# yum install gcc g++ binutils patch bzip2 flex bison make gettext unzip zlib1g-dev libc6 subversion
The output I get is: Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: centos.mirrors.hoobly.com * epel: linux.mirrors.es.net * extras: mirror.hmc.edu * rpmforge: apt.sw.be * rpmfusion-free-updates: mirror.hiwaay.net * rpmfusion-free-updates-testing: mirror.hiwaay.net * rpmfusion-nonfree-updates: mirror.hiwaay.net * rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing: mirror.hiwaay.net * updates: mirrors.easynews.com CentALT | 951 B 00:00

Okay, so I think what I need is to change my repositories (right??) to one where I can get packages for g++, zlib1g-dev and libc6. I believe it's two steps, identifying the repo and modifying some file to include the repo. I am a BSD guy folks, so naomba serikali inisaidie na hii...
