* Updated 2016-02-13 by bglopez // Commands *required* the `--replacepkgs` for all and `--force` for nss, etc. Otherwise it would fail with dependency issues at the YUM RPMs
* Hint: If it doesn't work later on, look for updated packages in http://mirror.centos.org/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS/
* libxml2-python-2.6.26-2.1.21.el5_9.3.i386.rpm is optional and yum worked without it
* yum-utils may also be added if needed
