    I’m running CentoOS 5.4.

    Linux hostname 2.6.18-164.9.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Dec 15 21:04:57 EST 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

    I tried a force with both rpm and yum.  Neither one worked.

    Also having this problem with the Pandora-Server RPM for version 3.0 final.

    [root@pandora ~]# rpm -i pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch.rpm
    error: Failed dependencies:
            perl-time-format is needed by pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch
            wmic is needed by pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch
            rpmlib(PayloadIsLzma) <= 4.4.6-1 is needed by pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch

    'yum update rpm' has not helped.

    Any suggestions?
    Could you repackage the RPM without using lzma compression?

    thanks,
    TrX

    [root@pandora ~]# rpm -i –nodeps pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch.rpm
    useradd: user pandora exists
    error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic

    Definatley seems to be an issue with the way the RPM is packaged.
    Also, another unresolved dep is

    perl-time-format is needed by pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch

    however this is no longer available in yum or rpmforge, all RPM’s available for this are old.

    I have Time::Format from CPAN however this doesnt help as it needs the RPM dep:

    Fetching with LWP:
      ftp://ftp.perl.org/pub/CPAN/modules/03modlist.data.gz
    Going to read /root/.cpan/sources/modules/03modlist.data.gz
    Going to write /root/.cpan/Metadata
    Time::Format is up to date.
    [root@pandora ~]# rpm -i pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch.rpm
    error: Failed dependencies:
            perl-time-format is needed by pandorafms_server-3.0.0-4.noarch

    Going to try a source install of PandoraFMS 3 final.

    Yes of course, you can get the tarball in the same place you get the .rpm packages, take a took on download section in pandorafms.org
