    I'm running centos 5.11. I am forced to use this old version.
    I created the /etc/yum.repos.d/webmin.repo as usual.
    I installed the key as usual. I installed the prerequisits as usual.
    when I run yum install webmin I get this:
    Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, security
    Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
    Webmin | 2.9 kB 00:00
    Webmin/primary_db | 87 kB 00:00

    Any suggestions?
    thanks

    Download the rpm and try installing directly. I have several centos 5.11 servers and as of 1.910-1 I get this error trying to install rpm
    rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 is needed by webmin-1.910-1.noarch
    rpmlib(PayloadIsXz) <= 5.2-1 is needed by webmin-1.910-1.noarch
    so it appears they have started building the rpm with an incompatable version of rpmlib. There is not, to my knowlege, a reasonable way to update to a version of rpm that supports xz compression.
