TIPS Webmin upgrade requires perl inst. Can't find files

[rchalk]

In trying to upgrade an early version of WebMin, I get a dependency failure, saying that
perl(Net::SSLeay) is needed by webmin-1.810-1.noarch
is required. However, when I run yum install, the command says there are no mirrors available. I assume this requires a repo to be added to etc/yum.conf, but I have not found where this file is available. Can anyone provide a valid repo?

Thanks,
Richard

I have also experienced an issue with the armtel version of this. IT appears the repository is not correct for webmin 1.810
Unpacking webmin (1.810) over (1.780) ...
I have a half installed updated 1.7810 that is suppose to be 1.810 but the dependencies are not met.
Rolling back the upgrades.

Hello peeps!

Here is the fix for that -

install optional dependencies with:

yum -y install perl perl-Net-SSLeay openssl perl-IO-Tty

You can verify it here:

http://www.webmin.com/rpm.html

Now you should be able to do the Webmin upgrade through it's info screen.

Hope this helps.

I tried to use apt-get install perl perl-Net-SSLeay openssl perl-IO-Tty from the CLI for a raspberryPI but an error mesage stating there is no source for the 1.780 of webmin:armhf
