“No package pv available.” on CentOS 6.2 Minimal

I’m trying to install Pipe Viewer on a CentOS 6.2 minimal system.

When I run:

yum install pv

I get:

* base: mirror.thelinuxfix.com
* extras: mirror.atlanticmetro.net
* updates: ftp.usf.eduNo package pv available.
Error: Nothing to do

Do I need to add another repo? If so, which one and how do I add it?

The pv package is available from the RPMForge repository. Follow the instructions at that link to install it.

You could also download and install the package a la carte – See the RPM search engine, rpm.pbone.net:

Here’s the pv package page.
