Difficulty Adding ATRPMS Repo to Yumex Under CentOS 5


Could someone look at this and let me know what I'm doing wrong? I'm trying to add ATRPMS to my yumex repo listfor CENTOS 5 (up to date). I've followed the instructions at the ATRPMS site and was able to fix a bunch of the error messages yumex was giving me (the suggested repo lines at the site didn't have spaces between the = and the http of the url).

This is what I have so far:

# Name: ATRPMS RPM Repository for Red Hat Enterprise 5
# URL: http://www.atrpms.net/
[atrpms]
name =F edora Core $releasever - $basearch - ATrpms
baseurl = http://dl.atrpms.net/f$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/stable
gpgkey = http://ATrpms.net/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpms
gpgcheck = 1


And here is what I'm still getting in red when yumex tries to start up.

17:43:15 : Yum Config Setup
17:43:15 : Loading "skip-broken" plugin
17:43:15 : Loading "installonlyn" plugin
17:43:15 : Yum Version : 3.0.5
17:43:15 : GUI Setup Completed
17:43:15 : Setup Yum : Transaction Set
17:43:15 : Setup Yum : RPM Db.
17:43:15 : Setup Yum : Repositories.
17:43:16 : Failure getting http://dl.atrpms.net/f5-x86_64/atrpm...ta/repomd.xml:
17:43:16 : --> [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found
17:43:16 : Trying other mirror.
17:43:27 : Cannot open/read repomd.xml file for repository: atrpms

Thanks for any help you can provide

That would be Fedora 5 you are referring to.

Try el5 instead of f5

I'm guessing

baseurl = http://dl.atrpms.net/el$releasever-$basearch/atrpms/stable

but you should be able to browse to there to check the url (go to http://dl.atrpms.net/ for example)

That did it!

One last question. If I want to add the "testing" part, do I just add the appropriate lines to this same atrpms.repo file or do I create an additional one for it?

Thanks again.

You can do either - probably cleaner to have a separate file

This is what I did... can uncomment testing when I need.

Code:
[atrpms-stable]
name=atrpms
baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el5-i386/atrpms/stable/
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://ATrpms.net/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpms

#[atrpms-testing]
#name=atrpms
#baseurl=http://dl.atrpms.net/el5-i386/atrpms/testing/
#gpgcheck=1
#gpgkey=http://ATrpms.net/RPM-GPG-KEY.atrpms
I guess I could have used the enabled [0|1] line but oh well.
