Where to find rpm for libblkid

Post by kclo2000 » 2012/12/15 17:13:49

I need to install a application which require libblkid package. I can find it under CentOS6 but can't find it from CentOS 5.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Let's see --

[code]
[ajb@Build64R5 ~]$ sudo yum provides \*/libblkid\*

[ajb@Build64R5 ~]$
[/code]
So the suggestion is to --

[code]
[b]yum install e2fsprogs-libs e2fsprogs-devel[/b]
[/code]

Thanks for your reply.

I have installed e2fsprogs-libs e2fsprogs-devel. However, when I install the application(actually it is appassure agent client), it still states that libbliid package is not available. I have checked that CentOS6 come with this yum package. Can CentOS5 also have this package.

Yes. That is what I showed in post #2.

[code]
[ajb@Build64R5 ~]$ rpm -ql e2fsprogs-libs | grep libblkid
/lib64/libblkid.so.1
/lib64/libblkid.so.1.0
[ajb@Build64R5 ~]$ rpm -ql e2fsprogs-devel | grep libblkid
/usr/lib64/libblkid.a
/usr/lib64/libblkid.so
/usr/share/man/man3/libblkid.3.gz
[ajb@Build64R5 ~]$
[/code]

kclo2000, did you ever get this working? I am also trying to get appassure to protect Centos5 and I am getting stuck at this same dependency. I tried the suggestion mentioned in post #2, but no joy.

Is this software provided by Dell? If so, you may want to try and ask in their support venue (forums?). Hopefully there are CentOS/RHEL/SL users who have an answer to this issue.

There is no mention of CentOS 5 (or RHEL5) support here
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.
Info for USB installs on http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/InstallFromUSBkey
CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
