As far as I know pmfusion for EL (or CentOS) never really got off the ground. The directory tree exists on the rpmfusion servers but is empty apart from updates/testing. > Besides the fact that they omit things we need, > it seems like you can only safely use one or the other. If I have to choose one > repo, it's hard not to choose RPMForge - it's much *bigger*. On our network, I install the rpmforge repo but disable it by default and give it a high priority number. I enable it only if I need to install a package not available from EL/CentOS or Epel. That hasn't caused any problems so far except that 'yum check-update', with rpmforge enabled, reports updates available from rpmforge even though 'yum update' wouldn't install them because of the priority protection. -- Ian _______________________________________________ Yum mailing list Yum@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum
