Hello,
Sorry if this is somewhat naive, but I'm a little confused as to what the
criteria is for that which will get upgraded automatically by yum and what will
not.
I see in our logwatch messages from time to time that yum upgraded a bunch of
stuff, but I also notice that yum will not upg

Hello,
As I've learned recently, I do not have any auto updates configured on my
system. I see some posts on the web encouraging the use of "yum-cron", but I'd
like to know what people feel about the use of automatic updates.
That is, for a server (non-desktop) system, automatic updates co

Hi,
Running CentOS5 with SpamAssassin v3.3.1-2.el5 installed via yum
I remember getting this error a while ago, and it was fixed, but
now it's happening again:
Subroutine Net::DNS::Resolver::Base::AF_INET6 redefined at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/Exporter.pm line 65.
at
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.
John, THANK YOU very much for responding --

The only hints I can find seem to suggest to remove
perl-IO-Socket-INET6, but trying to do so using yum (I don't
want to start using another method of package management)
tells me that spamassassin is a dependency and will also be
removed - obviously undesirable.

I don't mean to thread-hijack, but I'm curious, if apache runs as its
own non-root user and /etc/shadow is root-owned and 0400,

After solving my problem by downgrading perl-NetAddr-IP to the CentOS
repo's version, yum is of course telling me perl-NetAddr-IP is out of date
and needs to be updated (back to the buggy one in RepoForge).
So looks like yum-priorities is in order (ha! the pun!), but I have a question
