Installing/Enabling RPMForge on CentOS 6.5 (latest binaries)

The steps needed to install RPMForge on CentOS are already described on this excellent page, I'll just update the script to use the latest binaries.

rnd=$RANDOM
wget -O /tmp/rpmforge-`echo $rnd`.rpm http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.3-1.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
rpm --import http://apt.sw.be/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
rpm -i /tmp/rpmforge-`echo $rnd`.rpm
rm -f /tmp/rpmforge-`echo $rnd`.rpm
#


To test you can try installing something from the RPMForge repositories, like htop:
yum install htop
