I’ve updated my repo for fedora 7, so.. yum install weather-wallpaper should do the trick

Edit: Hidden yum transation behind more tag.

I’ve had a go at building one, it mostly works (this is my nagios box), it’s a rebuild of the f7 source, I have to frig about with the spec file, so I’ve published my source rpm here, search for Nick in the .spec file, you’ll see my bodge.

The smolt rpms are in my yum repo, feel free to download the packages and have a go.

• smolt-0.9.8.1-1.noarch.rpm
• smolt-firstboot-0.9.8.1-1.noarch.rpm
• smolt-gui-0.9.8.1-1.noarch.rpm
• smolt-server-0.9.8.1-1.noarch.rpm

tripwire-2.4.1.1-1.i386.rpm

My Yum repo has also been updated, config file here

The old xfce repo has been mergered into a new Whitebox repo, which in fact can be used for CentOS, WBEL or Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).

A new fedora repo exists as well, those with a keen eye will see new rpm sections for FC5 64_86 (my new pc!).

All packages will be signed with my gpg key, and config files can be found here:

• linickx-fedora.repo

  [LINICKX]
  name=LINICKX Fedora Yum Repo
  baseurl=http://www.linickx.com/files/rpm/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/
  gpgkey=http://www.linickx.com/files/GPG-KEY-NICK
  gpgcheck=1
  

• linickx-whitebox.repo

  [LINICKX]
  name=LINICKX WBEL Yum Repo
  baseurl=http://www.linickx.com/files/rpm/whitebox/$releasever/$basearch/
  gpgkey=http://www.linickx.com/files/GPG-KEY-NICK
  gpgcheck=1
  

copy the .repo’s into your /etc/yum.repo.d dir and you should be away ! Let me know if you have any problems

When my place of work moved office I lost my white box build server as soon as I’ve got one, I’ll get the rpms built, in the mean time please see www.xfce.org

I hope these are of use:

• wxPython-common-gtk2-unicode-2.6.1.0-1_py2.4.i386.rpm
• wxPython2.6-devel-gtk2-unicode-2.6.1.0-1_py2.4.i386.rpm
• wxPython2.6-gtk2-unicode-2.6.1.0-1_py2.4.i386.rpm

Well I’ve just noticed Solaris 10 is available and I needed a download manager. Normally the built in download manager in firefox will do, but today I wanted to be able to control the speed at which I downloaded … et voila d4x, an rpm hasn’t been build since fc2 so I built one.

Here’s a screen shot to keep you interested !

Download d4x

Today I came across gnome-blog it’s a small gnome applet that allows you to post direct from your desktop, Infact that’s exactly how this was written ! (h)

The default FC3 rpm on seths website didn’t install for me, it complained about a python(abi) dependancy – which I just couldn’t find – I did however find this similar rpm which I installed before installing gnome-blog, so if you have problems installing my rpm, then this may help. ( http://dl.atrpms.net/~/pythonabi-2.3.4-1.rhfc3.at.i386.rpm )

This is the screenshot from seth’s site, although I can’t work out how to preview like his !

Oh yeah – my rpm is here: gnome-blog-0.8-1.i386.rpm

Anyway the official announcement was here

You can update your whitebox installation using [LINICKX].com ! Check that you have something like this in your /etc/yum.conf…

Then… from a shell do:

…and your done
