[Spacewalk-list] Centos 5.2 install issue

[Andy Scutt]

Hi Michael,

No I'm working on a spare 32 bit machine we have, I didn't seem any *need* to be 64 bit for this system. 

But ignoring that you just gave me the solution :-)
The package perl-DateTime-Format-Mail is available via 2 repos in my yum config:
rmforge
epel

The rpmforge one is the "wrong" one for this install, so I forced it to use the EPEL one and it all works now.

Thanks a lot(and thanks to Zac for his ideas as well)
Andy

% Installed Packages

Hmm, maybe the real problem is different version of
perl-DateTime-Format-Mail; mine is: 

# rpm -q  perl-DateTime-Format-Mail
perl-DateTime-Format-Mail-0.30-4.el5
# rpm -q --requires perl-DateTime-Format-Mail
...
perl(DateTime) >= 0.18

# rpm -q  perl-DateTime
perl-DateTime-0.41-1.el5
# rpm -q --provides perl-DateTime
...
perl-DateTime = 1:0.41-1.el5

Both packages taken from EPEL.
Another thing comes to my mind - don't you have 64bit system?
