Our current build process requires the directfb-1.4.11-3.el6.i686.rpm and directfb-devel-1.4.11-3.el6.i686.rpm packages, but they appear to be no longer available from the EPEL repo, and I can’t find them anywhere else either. If you have a local copy, or can point me to some other repo or web site that has these 2 RPMs, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks, Alfred

  • Never mind, I was able to download the devel RPM by simply adding “-devel” to the appropriate place in the download URL for the base DirectFB package. I just could not find the corresponding build info page from which to download it. Now I just have to modify my kickstart process to install my local copies of these 2 RPMs so that any new systems I build are properly configured.

  • Hello Alfred,

    Not only has the package been removed from EPEL, upstream also seemed to have disappeared. This mysterious disappearance tickled my curiosity. Looked around a bit on the net, to find that wikipedia already knows what I didn’t: Upstream has moved from http://www.directfb.org to http://www.directfb.net.

    Regards, Leonard.
