Fantastico not installing (Not Installed)

Sometimes, even after we install fantastico it will show as “Not Installed”. Or during the installation itself, it may show an error message like “Buggy version of wget”.

To fix this, we need to correct the version of wget.

For 32-bit:

rpm -qa wget
wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/core/5/i386/os/
Fedora/RPMS/wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm
rpm -e wget
rpm -ivh –force wget-1.10.2-3.2.1.i386.rpm
rpm -qa wget

For 64-bit:

rpm -qa wget
wget http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/releases/7/
Everything/x86_64/os/Fedora/wget-1.10.2-15.fc7.x86_64.rpm
rpm -e wget
rpm -ivh –force wget-1.10.2-15.fc7.x86_64.rpm
rpm -qa wget

Thats it!!!
