The first file we need to look at is the README file. This file tells us to look at the INSTALL file:
[root@centos hello-2.1.1]# more INSTALL Copyright 1994, 1995, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2001 Free Software Foundation, Inc. This file is free documentation; the Free Software Foundation gives unlimited permission to copy, distribute and modify it. Basic Installation ================== These are generic installation instructions. The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package. It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output (useful mainly for debugging `configure'). It can also use an optional file (typically called `config.cache' and enabled with `--cache-file=config.cache' or simply `-C') that saves the results of its tests to speed up reconfiguring. (Caching is disabled by default to prevent problems with accidental use of stale cache files.) --Plus--(11%)
Reading this file tells us that we need to use four commands:
<note important> configure is a script that creates makefiles for a specific architecture. makefiles are read by the make command. </note>

Now we can test our newly install software:
[root@centos hello-2.1.1]# hello Hello, world!
All that work for just one line !
<note> Move to the /root directory by typing cd ~ in your terminal. </note>
In order to ease the burden of installing, uninstalling and managing software, called packages, CentOS and Red Hat use a special file format called rpm for Redhat Package Manager. The command used to manage packages is also called rpm.
The command line switches of the rpm command are as follows:
[root@centos ~]# rpm --help Usage: rpm [OPTION...] --quiet Query/Verify package selection options: -a, --all query/verify all packages -f, --file query/verify package(s) owning file -g, --group

To view a list of the packages installed on the machine, use the following command:
[root@centos ~]# rpm -qa | more yum-plugin-security-1.1.30-14.el6.noarch m17n-contrib-bengali-1.1.10-4.el6_1.1.noarch libreport-plugin-logger-2.0.9-15.el6.centos.1.i686 device-mapper-libs-1.02.77-9.el6.i686 ca-certificates-2010.63-3.el6_1.5.noarch system-config-firewall-tui-1.2.27-5.el6.noarch m17n-contrib-kannada-1.1.10-4.el6_1.1.noarch sssd-client-1.9.2-82.10.el6_4.i686 dracut-004-303.el6.noarch iwl6050-firmware-41.28.5.1-2.el6.noarch m17n-contrib-malayalam-1.1.10-4.el6_1.1.noarch kpartx-0.4.9-64.el6_4.2.i686 foomatic-db-ppds-4.0-7.20091126.el6.noarch dmz-cursor-themes-0.4-4.el6.noarch man-pages-overrides-6.4.1-1.el6.noarch libavc1394-0.5.3-9.1.el6.i686 samba-winbind-3.6.9-151.el6_4.1.i686 zenity-2.28.0-1.el6.i686 centos-release-6-4.el6.centos.10.i686 m17n-contrib-urdu-1.1.10-4.el6_1.1.noarch gstreamer-tools-0.10.29-1.el6.i686 libsss_idmap-1.9.2-82.10.el6_4.i686 parted-2.1-19.el6.i686 --More--
You can also use the rpm command to find out how many packages are installed:
[root@centos ~]# rpm -qa | wc -l 964
To search for a specific package, you need to pipe the result into grep:
[root@centos ~]# rpm -qa | grep setup cryptsetup-luks-1.2.0-7.el6.i686 setuptool-1.19.9-3.el6.i686 cryptsetup-luks-libs-1.2.0-7.el6.i686 setup-2.8.14-20.el6_4.1.noarch system-setup-keyboard-0.7-4.el6.i686
You can find out the details of a specific package such as setup-2.8.14-20.el6_4.1.noarch by using the following command:
[root@centos ~]# rpm -qi setup Name : setup Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 2.8.14 Vendor: CentOS Release : 20.el6_4.1 Build Date: Wed 02 Oct 2013 11:06:19 AM CEST Install Date: Fri 25 Oct 2013 10:29:56 AM CEST Build Host: c6b10.bsys.dev.centos.org Group : System Environment/Base Source RPM: setup-2.8.14-20.el6_4.1.src.rpm Size : 666477 License: Public Domain Signature : RSA/SHA1, Wed 02 Oct 2013 01:15:22 PM CEST, Key ID 0946fca2c105b9de Packager : CentOS BuildSystem <http://bugs.centos.org> URL : https://fedorahosted.org/setup/ Summary : A set of system configuration and setup files Description : The setup package contains a set of important system configuration and setup files, such as passwd, group, and profile.
Using the l switch with rpm gives a list of all the files installed by a specific package:
[root@centos ~]# rpm -ql setup /etc/aliases /etc/bashrc /etc/csh.cshrc /etc/csh.login /etc/environment /etc/exports /etc/filesystems /etc/fstab /etc/group /etc/gshadow /etc/host.conf /etc/hosts /etc/hosts.allow /etc/hosts.deny /etc/inputrc /etc/motd /etc/mtab /etc/passwd /etc/printcap /etc/profile /etc/profile.d /etc/protocols /etc/securetty /etc/services /etc/shadow /etc/shells /usr/share/doc/setup-2.8.14 /usr/share/doc/setup-2.8.14/COPYING /usr/share/doc/setup-2.8.14/uidgid /var/log/lastlog
whilst using the f switch shows the package that installed a specific file:
[root@centos ~]# rpm -qf /etc/exports setup-2.8.14-20.el6_4.1.noarch
Using the V switch you can check what has changed since a package was first installed:
[root@centos ~]# rpm -qV setup
In the case where the command returns nothing, nothing has changed. If something has changed you would see a line per file with the following keywords:
Keyword | Description |
---|---|
5 | MD5 Control |
S | File size |
L | Symbolic link |
T | Modification date |
D | Peripheral |
U | Owner changed |
G | Group changed |
M | Permissions changed |
? | Unreadable file |
Missing | File removed |
Yellow dog Updater, Modified (Yum) is the name of a package management utility, created by Yellow Dog Linux and used by, amongst others CentOS, Redhat and Fedora.
Yum is the equivalent of APT for Debian, urpmi for Mandriva and zypper for SLES/openSUSE.
The command takes the following form :
# yum <switches> <command> <package(s)> [Enter]
The switches and commands specific to yum are shown below:
[root@centos ~]# yum --help Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security Usage: yum [options] COMMAND List of Commands: check Check for problems in the rpmdb check-update Check for available package updates clean Remove cached data deplist List a package's dependencies distribution-synchronization Synchronize installed packages to the latest available versions downgrade downgrade a package erase Remove a package or packages from your system groupinfo Display details about a package group groupinstall Install the packages in a group on your system grouplist List available package groups groupremove Remove the packages in a group from your system help Display a helpful usage message history Display, or use, the transaction history info Display details about a package or group of packages install Install a package or packages on your system list List a package or groups of packages load-transaction load a saved transaction from filename makecache Generate the metadata cache provides Find what package provides the given value reinstall reinstall a package repolist Display the configured software repositories resolvedep Determine which package provides the given dependency search Search package details for the given string shell Run an interactive yum shell update Update a package or packages on your system update-minimal Works like update, but goes to the 'newest' package match which fixes a problem that affects your system updateinfo Acts on repository update information upgrade Update packages taking obsoletes into account version Display a version for the machine and/or available repos.

Yum's principal configuration file is /etc/yum.conf :
[root@centos ~]# cat /etc/yum.conf [main] cachedir=/var/cache/yum/$basearch/$releasever keepcache=0 debuglevel=2 logfile=/var/log/yum.log exactarch=1 obsoletes=1 gpgcheck=1 plugins=1 installonly_limit=5 bugtracker_url=http://bugs.centos.org/set_project.php?project_id=16&ref=http://bugs.centos.org/bug_report_page.php?category=yum distroverpkg=centos-release # This is the default, if you make this bigger yum won't see if the metadata # is newer on the remote and so you'll "gain" the bandwidth of not having to # download the new metadata and "pay" for it by yum not having correct # information. # It is esp. important, to have correct metadata, for distributions like # Fedora which don't keep old packages around. If you don't like this checking # interupting your command line usage, it's much better to have something # manually check the metadata once an hour (yum-updatesd will do this). # metadata_expire=90m # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo # in /etc/yum.repos.d
<note important> A repository is generally an Internet based data base containing pre-compiled, installable packages. </note>
Repositories are listed in the yum.conf file, or in repository specific files in /etc/yum.repos.d:
[root@centos ~]# ls /etc/yum.repos.d/ atomic.repo chromium-el6.repo mirrors-rpmforge-extras CentOS-Base.repo epel.repo mirrors-rpmforge-testing CentOS-Debuginfo.repo epel-testing.repo rpmforge.repo CentOS-Media.repo google-chrome.repo CentOS-Vault.repo mirrors-rpmforge
For example:
[root@centos ~]# cat /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo # CentOS-Base.repo # # The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the # update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and # geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates # unless you are manually picking other mirrors. # # If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the # remarked out baseurl= line instead. # # [base] name=CentOS-$releasever - Base mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=os #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/os/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 #released updates [updates] name=CentOS-$releasever - Updates mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=updates #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/updates/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 #additional packages that may be useful [extras] name=CentOS-$releasever - Extras mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=extras #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/extras/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 #additional packages that extend functionality of existing packages [centosplus] name=CentOS-$releasever - Plus mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=centosplus #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/centosplus/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=0 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6 #contrib - packages by Centos Users [contrib] name=CentOS-$releasever - Contrib mirrorlist=http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=$releasever&arch=$basearch&repo=contrib #baseurl=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/$releasever/contrib/$basearch/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=0 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-6
The most frequently used switches are as follows:
Switch | Description |

-y | Automatically replies yes to any question asked by yum. |
-t | Makes yum tolerant. In other words if two packages are being installed and the first fails, yum will continue with the second installation. |
- -exclude=<package> | Exclude the package from the current transaction |
The most frequently used commands are as follows:
Command | Description |
---|---|
install | Install one or several packages. |
update | Update one, several or all packages. |
check-update | Show a list of available updates. |
remove | Removes a package. |
provides | Show a list of packages that provide a particular file or characteristic. |

Shared Libraries are bits of common code used by several programs in the same domain ( sound, databases, video e.t.c. ). The functions porposed by one or several shared libraries are refered to as an API (Application Programming Interface). Under Linux, shared libraries are refered to as Shared Objects and have a .so suffix.
Shared Objects are stored in lib directories, for example:
Directory | Contents |
---|---|
/lib | System Shared Objects |
/usr/lib | User Shared Objects |
/usr/local/lib | Local Shared Objects |
/usr/X11R6/lib | Graphical System Shared Objects |
/opt/kde4/lib | Shared Objects for KDE |
<note important> The most important Shared Object is libc. Without libc, Linux will not function. </note>
The Shared Object ld-linux.so.2 is used to create a link between a Shared Object and an executable when the latter starts. For this reason, ld-linux.so.2 is often refered to as the Link Loader. ld-linux.so.2 looks for Shared Objects in the following places and in the order shown:
The contents of the cache file are built from the information contained within the /etc/ld.so.conf file.
In order to study the impact of a missing Shared Object, re-install mc.
To determine which Shared Objects are linked to a binary, use the ldd command:
[root@centos ~]# ldd /usr/bin/mc linux-gate.so.1 => (0x002fd000) libgpm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgpm.so.2 (0x00d75000) libslang.so.2 => /usr/lib/libslang.so.2 (0x00148000) libglib-2.0.so.0 => /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0x002fe000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00bb8000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00d51000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x00d80000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00b92000)
Now let us see what happens when a Shared Object is missing. Rename the /usr/lib/libslang.so.2 to /usr/lib/libslang.so.2.old:
[root@centos ~]# mv /usr/lib/libslang.so.2 /usr/lib/libslang.so.2.old
Run the ldd command again:
[root@centos ~]# ldd /usr/bin/mc linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00843000) libgpm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgpm.so.2 (0x00d75000) libslang.so.2 => not found libglib-2.0.so.0 => /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0x00101000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00bb8000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00b92000)
Note the presence of the line libslang.so.2 ⇒ not found. In such a scenario mc will not launch:
[root@centos ~]# mc mc: error while loading shared libraries: libslang.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Correct the previous error and check that all is OK:
[root@centos ~]# mv /usr/lib/libslang.so.2.old /usr/lib/libslang.so.2 [root@centos ~]# ldd /usr/bin/mc linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00aee000) libgpm.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgpm.so.2 (0x00b9e000) libslang.so.2 => /usr/lib/libslang.so.2 (0x00110000) libglib-2.0.so.0 => /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 (0x00ba9000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00225000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00b4e000) libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x00b72000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x0099e000)
The /etc/ld.so.conf file is used to configure the cache: /etc/ld.so.cache :
[root@centos ~]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
As you can see, this file contains just one include directive that points to the /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ directory:
[root@centos ~]# ls -l /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ total 24 -r--r--r--. 1 root root 324 Oct 16 19:43 kernel-2.6.32-358.23.2.el6.i686.conf -r--r--r--. 1 root root 324 Feb 21 2013 kernel-2.6.32-358.el6.i686.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 15 Feb 26 2012 mysqlclient16-i386.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 15 Aug 2 23:08 mysql-i386.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 20 Sep 23 2011 qt-i386.conf -rw-r--r--. 1 root root 19 Oct 29 22:25 xulrunner-32.conf
The contents of the three files that concern applications are as follows:
[root@centos ~]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/mysql-i386.conf /usr/lib/mysql
[root@centos ~]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/qt-i386.conf /usr/lib/qt-3.3/lib
[root@centos ~]# cat /etc/ld.so.conf.d/xulrunner-32.conf /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.2
The ldconfig command is used to:
When used with the -p switch, the ldconfig command shows the cntents of the cache:
[root@centos ~]# ldconfig -p | more 654 libs found in cache `/etc/ld.so.cache' libz.so.1 (libc6) => /lib/libz.so.1 libxul.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/xulrunner/libxul.so libxtables.so.4 (libc6) => /lib/libxtables.so.4 libxslt.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxslt.so.1 libxpcom.so (libc6) => /usr/lib/xulrunner/libxpcom.so libxml2.so.2 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxml2.so.2 libxmlrpc_util.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_util.so.3 libxmlrpc_server_cgi.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_server_cgi.so.3 libxmlrpc_server_abyss.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_server_abyss.so.3 libxmlrpc_server.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_server.so.3 libxmlrpc_client.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_client.so.3 libxmlrpc_abyss.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc_abyss.so.3 libxmlrpc.so.3 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxmlrpc.so.3 libxklavier.so.15 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxklavier.so.15 libxkbfile.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxkbfile.so.1 libxcb.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb.so.1 libxcb-xvmc.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xvmc.so.0 libxcb-xv.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xv.so.0 libxcb-xtest.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xtest.so.0 libxcb-xselinux.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xselinux.so.0 libxcb-xinerama.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xinerama.so.0 libxcb-xf86dri.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xf86dri.so.0 libxcb-xfixes.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xfixes.so.0 libxcb-xevie.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-xevie.so.0 libxcb-sync.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-sync.so.0 libxcb-shm.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-shm.so.0 libxcb-shape.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-shape.so.0 libxcb-screensaver.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-screensaver.so.0 libxcb-res.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-res.so.0 libxcb-reply.so.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-reply.so.1 libxcb-render.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libxcb-render.so.0 --More--
