No, I don't have bandwidth to spare on downloading package xyz or abc
cause one guy says this, and another says that. I haven't done this
before, and I have a CentOS 5.1 x64 machine with very very little
installed, so I need to download a lot of stuff for it to work
probably. anyway, I'll look into it later, thank you
but by reading you'll find out what package to download without
wasting bandwidth. If you have to pay for the transfer then its
perhaps best to do a yum install rpm-build and find out what packages
are required and then install these off the CD rather than from a
repo. Or configure a local repo.

But you're implying that it's wrong to ask the question on a list where
I could possibly get a direct answer? With regard to configuring a local
repo, it's going to cost me a lot of money to download the full CentOS 5
repo. I know the DVD is 3GB, which will cost me a fortune, since I pay
per MB. Anyway, I'm not going to bother with it. OpenSuse 10.3 has a x64
rpm already so I'm going to use that instead. Thank you for your help
