[squid-users] v3.5.x RPM for CentOS 6

[Dan Charlesworth]

Hey Eliezer

Do you have any plans to maintain a Squid 3.5.x rpm for CentOS 6? 

I can see you’ve published one for CentOS 7. In fact I tried to use your spec file from the EL7 version to build an EL6 rpm, but ran into errors when updating from 3.4.12:

1. Installing the separate squid-helpers package had a dependency error I’m not sure how to resolve:
---> Package squid-helpers.x86_64 7:3.5.2-1.el6 will be installed
--> Processing Dependency: perl(Crypt::OpenSSL::X509) for package: 7:squid-helpers-3.5.2-1.el6.x86_64
--> Processing Dependency: perl(DBI) for package: 7:squid-helpers-3.5.2-1.el6.x86_64
--> Running transaction check
---> Package perl-DBI.x86_64 0:1.609-4.el6 will be installed
---> Package squid-helpers.x86_64 7:3.5.2-1.el6 will be installed
--> Processing Dependency: perl(Crypt::OpenSSL::X509) for package: 7:squid-helpers-3.5.2-1.el6.x86_64
--> Finished Dependency Resolution
Error: Package: 7:squid-helpers-3.5.2-1.el6.x86_64 (getbusi-dev)
           Requires: perl(Crypt::OpenSSL::X509)
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem

 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

2. Having disabled all the helpers which are missing because of that package everything was okay except for an error regarding the “ICMP Pinger”:
2015/03/18 14:13:25| pinger: Initialising ICMP pinger ...
2015/03/18 14:13:25|  icmp_sock: (1) Operation not permitted
2015/03/18 14:13:25| pinger: Unable to start ICMP pinger.
2015/03/18 14:13:25|  icmp_sock: (1) Operation not permitted
2015/03/18 14:13:25| pinger: Unable to start ICMPv6 pinger.
2015/03/18 14:13:25| FATAL: pinger: Unable to open any ICMP sockets.

Do you have any advice on how to overcome these issues?

Thanks!
Dan
