Hi folks.
I'm trying to find two packages Plptools and Kpsion which will allow me to
connect my Psion S5 to my FC5 box. I have these repositories enabled in in
yum: core, extras, legacy, update, livna and livna updates. Doing a search
amongst those repositories does not find either of the packages. If I do a
search on rpmfind I get a choice of, other, suse,altlinux and rh7. Which one
would be the best / easiest to install on my fc5 box, or does any one know
where I can find fc5 specific versions of these files. Is there any more
repositories that I'm missing?
Why not grab the source at
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=8797 and build a
new RPM for it?
Actually, I just looked and there is a spec file in the tarball. You
should be able to build your own RPM issuing the command:
rpmbuild -ba plptools.spec
Once you've set up your rpmbuild directory structure, of course. See
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines for some good info
about building packages.
