I have succesfully installed all the w3c-libwww rpms required manually though having them download manually everytime , it would have been good if I had used apt , Can anybody please tell me how should I make an entry about rmpfind.net repository to my yum.conf place and as far as rpmfind command is concerned , is it removed from fedora , I used to have it in my redhat 8.0 ~Nikhil.
