Why I can't use add or remove software package in Frdora Core 5 linux?
:confused:
Hello all of my linuxquestions forum friends! I am annoying about my Fedora Core 5 linux OS in opening "add or remove software package" (package name is 'pirut') to add next softwares by using Fedora Core 5 CDs. When I open this program, show the message error including this text "could not retrived software packages". Please return, if you know to solve this problem. I have done to login as root user. But This error still occur "Could not retrived software packages". I think this is concerned with the Add or Removed Package "pirut" or Fedora Core 5 Bugs. Please help me again. I am still annoying about this problem. Thank you very much to all! |
you should login as root.
try logiggin as root and do the same. |

If you open the add software menu item, it should ask you for the root password. Make sure the program preferences are set to look on the CDs |
I also got the same problem in FC3.
The fedora does not ask any password to do administrative work, while we login as a normal user. we have to login as root in the GUI to do things in GUI mode. |
