| Biff` | How much do one of those boards go for? |
| mattpat | Evolution: Got the old version of yum working again, thanks for the suggestion :) |
| Evolution | mattpat: no problem. |
| D-side | Biff`: they're not released yet. under $150 though. probably closer to $120 its not really suited for "server" usage, but i never let facts like that stop me |
| Biff` | "not released yet" might also be an obstacle. |
| adam1 | Hey can you use a usb keyboard/mouse with CentOS? |
| Biff` | Yes. |
| adam1 | cool |
| Biff` | I found that out when I loaded up a 2950 at work... no PS/2 ports on it. |
| adam1 | what about bluetooth? |
| z00dax | Biff`: might want to make sure that the bios can use usb |
| marcster | hi. what kind of license does RedHat have? Per-user or per-cpu? |
| z00dax | marcster: you want #redhat |
| mattpat | Hey y'all, I'm having a yum problem... I'm trying to upgrade PHP from 4 to 5, but one of the currently installed packages, php-domxml, requires 4. When I try to do the upgrade, it says the dependency cannot be met; when I try to remove php-domxml, it wants to take a huge load of dependencies with it, including Plesk... any suggestions? |
| z00dax | talk to Plesk ? how are you doing the update ? |
| mattpat | yum update php (with the CentOSPlus repository) That fails yum remove php-domxml Tries to take everything with it |
| z00dax | you might want to talk to Plesk chaps and find out if they are ok with that I have a feeling, based on what you are saying - they have hard depend's on the php4 rpms |
| mattpat | z00dax: OK, I'll talk to them, thanks! z00dax: The Plesk KB claims that PHP 5 upgrade is possible, but that the dependencies are tied to PHP 4. Under the Debian instructions, it simply says install the new version of the conflicting package to eliminate that issue... unfortunately, I'm unable to do that, because I can't find that package Is there any way I can get yum to remove a package without removing packages that depend on it? |
| Evolution | mattpat: no, but you can do that with rpms. er rpm. --nodeps will let you do that, but in general you should really understand what it'll do before you do it. |
| mattpat | Evolution: I think it will work... see, Plesk says that PHP 5 works fine with it, and the package with the dependencies is provided for by a newer package, but it won't let me upgrade to it because of another dependency issue... it's a vicious circle really |
| Evolution | mattpat: which? php-pear? |
| mattpat | php-domxml Which is provided for by php-xml in PHP 5 |
| Evolution | right. and the rpm should provide it. |
| mattpat | I think it's going something like this: |
| Evolution | you should safely be able to rpm -e --nodeps php-domxml then update php |
| mattpat | OK, thanks, I'll try it *crosses fingers* Evolution: It worked perfectly, thanks for the help :) |
