BUG RepoForge repo not available

[jolebole]

Incredible PBX 12 install script can't download package rpmforge-release-0.5.3-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm from RepoForge. Is this repo temporary unavailable? Can I somehow skip this package?

Same problem. Seems like IncrediblePBX for FreePBX isn't getting any attention now that XIVO is the preferred solution. Now I'm worried about my existing installations. It seemed like they were committed to FreePBX. I don't want to have to rebuild everything in XIVO, or take the time to learn how to build what XIVO doesn't do by GUI.

***UPDATE: Looks like it's just IncrediblePBX 12 that's broken. Ward mentioned in a post to try 13, which is what I'm doing now. So for, so good.

You can't skip the package.
You can temporarily use:

rpm -uvh http://repository.it4i.cz/mirrors/repoforge/redhat/el6/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.5.3-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
