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 atrpms | 2.6 kB 00:00 atrpms-testing | 3.0 kB 00:00 base | 1.1 kB 00:00 c5-testing | 951 B 00:00 epel | 3.4 kB 00:00 extras | 2.1 kB 00:00 nginx | 1.2 kB 00:00 rpmforge | 1.1 kB 00:00 rpmfusion-free-updates | 2.8 kB 00:00 rpmfusion-free-updates-testing | 2.8 kB 00:00 rpmfusion-nonfree-updates | 2.8 kB 00:00 rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing | 2.8 kB 00:00 updates | 1.9 kB 00:00 Setting up Install Process Package gcc-4.1.2-51.el5.i386 already installed and latest version No package g++ available.

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... -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.
