Problem installing packages in AlmaLinux 9 via Ghettoforge repository (gf) (solved)

Support and Discussion General Discussion

Hello community,

I’m using CyberPanel on a VPS running AlmaLinux 9. I’ve been having issues installing packages like SpamAssassin and rspamd. I’ve consistently received the error “Cannot install.[404]” and messages related to the repository “Ghettoforge packages that will not overwrite the core (gf).” After investigating, I discovered that the gf repository was causing these errors because it couldn’t download the repomd.xml file.

Workaround:
I disabled the gf repository using

Copy
sudo dnf config-manager --set-disabled gf
sudo dnf clear all
sudo dnf makecache
After this, I was able to install packages without issue.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Is it safe to keep gf disabled in CyberPanel on AlmaLinux 9? Are there any essential CyberPanel packages that depend on this repository?

Thanks for any guidance!

i did according to this :

To upgrade the gf-release package for el8:
dnf --disablerepo=gf\* install https://mirror.ghettoforge.net/distributions/gf/gf-release-latest.gf.el8.noarch.rpm

To upgrade the gf-release package for el9:
dnf --disablerepo=gf\* install https://mirror.ghettoforge.net/distributions/gf/gf-release-latest.gf.el9.noarch.rpm

update cyberpanel still working after that.

ghettoforge is dead, check their domain neither “.net” or “.org” is alive…
