I want up-to-dateish versions of TexLive, R, gnumeric, emacs, but on a
more-or-less stable base of Centos-5.2.  I asked for packages in this,
but got no answers. So now I've built them and will let you try them
if you want. I used the source packages from Fedora 8 and 9.

You might want to take a look at joining up with rpmrepo for
distribution of packages. Folks are (sometimes with good reason)
reluctant to use packages from individuals. Rpmforge/rpmrepo are
respected repositories, and you'll be able to take advantage of plenty
of developer expertise.


Thanks for the suggestion.  I've gone to http://reprepo.org and find
mostly "empty space" and links pointing nowhere.



It is so empty it doesn't even point to an actual server. Did you mean http://rpmrepo.org/ ;-D
