+<h2><a class="anchor" href="#rpms">Tor packages for rpm-based
+linux distributions.</a></h2>
+<br />
+
+<p>Do not use the packages in the native repositories.</b> They are
+frequently out of date. That means you'll be missing stability and
+security fixes.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+You'll need to set up our package repository before you can fetch
+Tor.  Assuming yum, in /etc/yum.repos.d/, create a file called
+torproject.repo.  Edit this file with the following information:
+<tt>[torproject]
+name=Tor and Vidalia
+enabled=1
+autorefresh=0
+baseurl=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/DISTRIBUTION/
+type=rpm-md
+gpgcheck=1
+gpgkey=http://deb.torproject.org/torproject.org/rpm/RPM-GPG-KEY-torproject.org
+</tt>
+
+where you substitute the word (centos4, centos5, fc10, fc11, fc12,
+opensuse) in place of DISTRIBUTION.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Now Tor is installed and running. Move on to <a href="<page
+docs/tor-doc-unix>#polipo">step two</a> of the "Tor on Linux/Unix"
+instructions.
+</p>
+
+<p style="font-size: small">
+The DNS name <code>deb.torproject.org</code> is actually a set of independent
+servers in a DNS round robin configuration.  If you for some reason cannot
+access it you might try to use the name of one of its part instead.  Try
+<code>deb-master.torproject.org</code>,
+<code>mirror.netcologne.de</code> or
+<code>tor.mirror.youam.de</code>.
