How to install packages which are unavailable for CentOS 5?

Former Member
Former Member over 12 years ago

Hi,

I'm trying to do step 12 of lab 0_1 instruction which is:
+-----+
$ sudo yum install glibc-devel.i686 gtk2-devel.i686
gtk-nodoka-engine.i686 libcanberra.i686
libcanberra-gtk2.i686 PackageKit-gtk-module.i686
GConf2.i686 ncurses-libs.i686 xulrunner.i686
+-----+

As I'm using windows 7 I have to apparently change i686 into x86_64.

+-----+
sudo yum install glibc-devel.x86_64 gtk2-devel.x86_64
gtk-nodoka-engine.x86_64 libcanberra.x86_64
libcanberra-gtk2.x86_64 PackageKit-gtk-module.x86_64
GConf2.x86_64 ncurses-libs.x86_64 xulrunner.x86_64
+-----+

When I do so I get the following result:

+----+
[technicolor@localhost ~]$ sudo yum install glibc-devel.x86_64 gtk2-devel.x86_64
> gtk-nodoka-engine.x86_64 libcanberra.x86_64
> libcanberra-gtk2.x86_64 PackageKit-gtk-module.x86_64
> GConf2.x86_64 ncurses-libs.x86_64 xulrunner.x86_64
[sudo] password for technicolor:

Setting up Install Process
Package glibc-devel-2.5-107.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Package gtk2-devel-2.10.4-29.el5.x86_64 already installed and latest version

No package ncurses-libs.x86_64 available.
Package xulrunner-17.0.3-2.el5_9.x86_64 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
+----+


How do I get these packages below installed when they are not available?
No package gtk-nodoka-engine.x86_64 available.
No package libcanberra.x86_64 available.
No package libcanberra-gtk2.x86_64 available.
No package PackageKit-gtk-module.x86_64 available.
No package ncurses-libs.x86_64 available.
