yum install for gcc-c++ doesn't work

aagha · 04-21-2006, 08:21 PM

I'm trying to get g++ installed on my FC4 box using yum, but for some reason, I'm not making any progress:

Code:

[root@localhost mythtv]# yum install gcc-c++
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Parsing package install arguments
No Match for argument: gcc-c++
Nothing to do

Any ideas on what might be wrong?

I try to get info on it:

Code:

[root@localhost mythtv]# yum info gcc-c++
Setting up repositories
atrpms                    100% |=========================|  951 B    00:00
Reading repository metadata in from local files

And search:

Code:

[root@localhost mythtv]# yum search gcc-c++
Searching Packages:
Setting up repositories
Reading repository metadata in from local files
No Matches found

But no luck.

What repos do you have enabled?

Spooon, sorry for my ignorance, but can you tell me how I can find out what repos I have enabled?

Alright, I think this is the list of repos I have:

Code:

[mythtv@localhost yum.repos.d]$ ls -l
total 48
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 120 Apr 21 19:49 atrpms.repo
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 115 Apr 21 19:50 dag.repo
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 159 Apr 21 19:51 dries.repo
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 106 Apr 21 19:51 flash.repo
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 311 Apr 21 19:51 kde-redhat.repo
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 118 Apr 21 19:51 livna.repo

I finally gave up on yum and just used apt-get:

# apt-get update
# apt-get install gcc-c++

Just slip the OS install CD in and try with yum,

# yum install gcc-g++
