-Also i cant install dproto even though its really easy to install , what ever i do in "meta list" it shows "fail to load" , and i dont know if it has anithing to do with this python error.....
I would really apreciate if someone could help me get rid of the python error and dproto "fail to load"
errors ----->
error

Thanks in advance

Since lgsm have deprecated centos 6 a while ago, user should take all responsibility of running unsupported version, hence lgsm wont make accommodation for it

Thank you

The only thing i could think of is that someone could maintain a version where this was not removed (and change the basic settings from lgsm to point to their version), but this is out of scope of this project .

To skip this you need to change the scripts yourself.

thank you h3o66 ,
are you refering to dproto or python?
Couldn't this just be made possible by installing the missing nmap-ncat thing ? i tried to search some answers but couldnt find anithing precise.
Centos 6 doesnt seem deprecated by lgsm as its verry compatible and i'm thankfull for that lgsm made my life easier , the only 2 errors that centos 6 users get is glibc that has already a solve thanks to your help and this python nmap-ncat thing wich i'm sure can be solved by some bright minds (not mine) ..... this doesnt't mean deprecated.
And i dont think that for 1 error we should deny so many centos 6 users from using lgsm.
Thanks

LinuxGSM does not support CentOS 6 anymore and hasn't for a long while now. This is because most game servers just don't work on it (without bodging it) and LinuxGSM itself has a few things in code that don't work in CentOS 6. Not only that CentOS 6 goes fully out of support in November this year and full updates stopped in 2017. This means that security-wise it will become unsafe and no one should be using it for production at all.

I will look at updating linuxgsm for the next release disabling dependency checks for centos 6 and advising that CentOS 6 is not supported. This will mean you won't get the missing dependencies error. You are welcome to use CentOS 6 but it really is not recommended.

Not only is dproto very old with no updates for years (which is why it does not work) it is used to allow non-steam versions of cs 1.6 on to your server. Our FAQ states that we will not support piracy.

whichever protocols valve intend to work, will work. If you have a legitimate steam version of cs 1.6 then you will be able to connect to it.
