Status of free RHEL6 repo

Unread post by jb044 »

What is the status of this repo. I noticed a couple of things:

- PHP seems broken for x86_64, there are 5.3.6-4 i686 packages that cause a 32 bit downgrade attempt (x86-64 is still on -3)
- Some packages seem missing
- Newest OSSEC requires libmysqlclient 18 which I couldn't find anywhere, only the .16 release

Most times either a compile from source for the missing packages or recompile on real RHEL (compatible) hw seems to resolve the issues.
Is RHEL6, especially CentOS 6 and the likes, still experimental or am I missing something here?

Can you be more specific about PHP? An error message thats actionable would be helpful

Excerpt form the atomic channel url:

php-5.3.6-3.el6.art.x86_64.rpm Apr 19 2011 14:17:43 1218kb
php-5.3.6-4.el6.art.i686.rpm Aug 02 2011 16:51:41 1206kb

This causes yum to attempt to 'upgrade' php to php-5.3.6-4.i686, this fails becuase of missing deps (libmcrypt.i686 IIRC)

I'm sorry I can't be more specific, I fixed this on my SL6.1 box by rpmbuild of php 5.3.6-5 srpm so I no longer get the error when running yum update.
