I was wondering if I could use Livna as one of my repositories under CentOS 5? I realize that this will probably "void the warranty" as far as being a true RH clone.

If I do, is there anything in particular that I need to be aware of?

Thanks for your help.

a warranty?? Well Livna is for fedora, so you'll soon find you're in a very horrible state when one update cascades dozens and dozens of other fedora specific packages and eventually just collapses in a heap. the binary applications will probably work fine, but RPM lives at a higher level where it's often the package name (which includes distro specific versioning e.g fc8 vs el5) that is the commanding factor over what is required. I assume Karan's repo is still working fine, and that was the general equivalent of livna, but also there's centos plus...

Atrpms is probably a better choice for Centos (NOT for Fedora). It is on the approved list from Centos.

ok, thanks for the recommendation.
