What would be the best way to install mock on my Centos server? yum install mock does not recognize the
package. Have already installed 'Developer tools' using yum groupinstall.

It looks like it's available in the EPEL repository. Assuming CentOS 6:

# wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm
# rpm -i epel-release-6-8.noarch.rpm

Then re-run your yum search or install.

For CentOS 5 use this URL instead:

http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm

Use mock from the EPEL repo for CentOS 6.

Please see http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories for more information.

How best to install path.py package in Python 3.4 environment on Centos 5?

I want to install path.py in my Python 3.4 environment on a Centos 5 box. My /usr/local/bin/ contains: 

easy_install-3.4 
python3.4  
etc.

We are behind a proxy server and I tried this: 

# /usr/local/bin/easy_install-3.4 path.py 

Searching for path.py 
Reading https://pypi.python.org/simple/path.py/ 
Download error on https://pypi.python.org/simple/path.py/: hostname '172.29.68.1  
' doesn't match either of 'www.python.org', 'python.org', 'pypi.python.org',  
'docs.python.org', 'testpypi.python.org', 'bugs.python.org', 'wiki.python.org',  
'hg.python.org', 'mail.python.org', 'packaging.python.org', 'pythonhosted.org',  
'www.pythonhosted.org', 'test.pythonhosted.org', 'us.pycon.org', 'id.python.org' --  
Some packages may not be found!

Couldn't find index page for 'path.py' (maybe misspelled?), Am I best to use pip or easy_install? also if easy_install, how can I fix the above error?

How to install compiler package on Fedora 26?

Installed Fedora 26 on recommendation of a Scribus developer. Installed about 30 packages per his advice.

But when I try to compile a program the machine can't find C++. So what is the package I need to install to compile C++ programs?.

Another question. On Slackware (yes I am one of those) I can use kdm to get to a window function ( I preferXFCE). How do I set up a window manager in Fedora and how do I access it?

Is there a way to install ALL Python packages?

I'd like to install ALL Python packages on my machine. Even if it takes up 4-5GB, or more, I'd like to get everything, and then use it when I need it. Now, I'd like to import packages, like numpy and pandas, but nothing will install. I figure, if I can just install everything, I can simply use it when I need it, and if I don't need it, then I just won't use it.

I know R offers this as an option. I figure Python must allow it too.

Any idea how to grab everything?
