Hi all, I'm trying to install rrdtool on CentOS 5.3 x64, but it keeps failing with dependency problems: root@pluto:[~]$ yum install rrdtool* Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * freshrpms: ayo.uk3.freshrpms.net * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de Excluding Packages in global exclude list Finished Setting up Install Process Parsing package install arguments Resolving Dependencies There are unfinished transactions remaining.

I have googled this a bit, and it seems a lot of people end up installing a the tar ball manually - which I don't want todo. So, does anyone know how to install the RPM successful? -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers CEO, SoftDux Hosting Web: http://www.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532 _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
