When trying to install proftpd for centos 6 , I added the correct version of the rpmforge repo, I get the following error
Transaction Check Error:
file /usr/share/man/man3/MIME::Base64.3pm.gz conflicts between attempted installs of perl-MIME-Base64-3.13
-1.el6.rf.x86_64 and perl-4:5.10.1-119.el6_1.1.x86_64
file /usr/share/man/man3/MIME::QuotedPrint.3pm.gz conflicts between attempted installs of perl-MIME-Base64
-3.13-1.el6.rf.x86_64 and perl-4:5.10.1-119.el6_1.1.x86_64
I ran yum install proftpd which led me here.
I’m not entirely sure what is conflicting with the install. Any ideas?
Try to install from EPEL instead. It has proftpd and won’t cause as many conflicts as RF.
and here’s a link to setup EPEL on your machine
Basically: “rpm -Uvh http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/Linux/Fedora/epel/6/x86_64/epel-release-6-5.noarch.rpm“
PS. Probably best to move this question to serverfault.com instead
