I am just trying to update a WEB server but I face a
problem , seems general!
Normally when you try to use YUM (We are using Core2),
you will receive a very old offer of update from
RedHat web site and when we try to install RPMs for
other Cores , we receive many dependecy errors.(For
instant the best offer of YUM for FC2 trying to update
Apache is 2.0.51 and MySQL 3... ! .
We receive other error messages when we try to use
sources of these programs.
So what is thebest solution to keep these packages as
up to date as possible?
No need to say that we can not upgrade to Core4
easily.
FC2 is EOL - means no updates available for it since several month.
There is the Fedora Legacy Project
http://www.fedoralegacy.org/ which
offers security (no feature updates, only security patches) updates for
actually EOL products FC1 and FC2. Please read on their website. Without
upgrading to a current Fedora release you can't get newer applications
versions without doing the work yourself.
