Easy GnoCHM installation on fedora core 4 with yum

Mon, 12/26/2005 - 01:07 — sandip

GnoCHM is a CHM (Microsoft Compressed HTML Help) file viewer. It is designed to integrate nicely with Gnome. It uses PyCHM, a Python package that exports the CHMLIB API.

  1. You will need to add the following lines to your yum config, "/etc/yum.repos.d/dries.repo":
    [dries]
name=Extra Fedora rpms dries - $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://ftp.belnet.be/packages/dries.ulyssis.org/fedora/linux/$releasever/$basearch/dries/RPMS
gpgcheck=1
enabled=0
  2. Import dries GPG key: 
    # rpm --import http://dries.studentenweb.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY.dries.txt
  3. Run yum enabling dries repos and install "gnochm": 
    # yum --enablerepo=dries install gnochm

    This will also install all the required packages: chmlib, python-chm and gnome-python2-gconf.

Hi, really thanks, at least I found here a clue for installing gnochm, however unsuccess, lol. Whenever I try, I got the follow lines:

[quote] yum --enablerepo=dries install gnochmLoaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit
http://ftp.belnet.be/packages/dries.ulyssis.org/fedora/linux/17/i386/dries/RPMS/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found : http://ftp.belnet.be/packages/dries.ulyssis.org/fedora/linux/17/i386/dries/RPMS/repodata/repomd.xml
Trying other mirror.
Error: failure: repodata/repomd.xml from dries: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to try.[qoute]

What else I could try, I'd appreciate any clue.
