i want to install tor package on my centOS server

here is the output of cat /proc/version :

Linux version 2.6.32-358.18.1.el6.x86_64 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.4.7 20120313 (Red Hat 4.4.7-3) (GCC) )

when i run command yum install tor i get the following output :

Setting up Install Process

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

i've installed all of packages above using these commands:

yum install libcrypto.so.10
yum install libevent-2.0.so.5
yum install libssl.so.10

so , what's the problem? thanks in advance

The problem is, you didn't properly follow the directions.

You have a CentOS 6 system, but you are attempting to install Tor packages for Fedora 19.

The directions state, in relevant part:

Fedora 18/19 and EL6 packages
For Fedora 18, Fedora 19, RHEL 6 (and clones), use following repo file - substitute DISTRIBUTION with one of the following: fc/18, fc/19 or el/6 according to your distribution.

So, you were meant to remove the word DISTRIBUTION each time it appears in the repo file and replace them with el/6. Instead, you replaced them with fc/19.

Once you correct this, you will find that you are able to install the Tor package correctly.
