Did you mean to send this to the test-list? I don't believe that
YUM-2.1.3 is ready for FC2 yet. If you're on test 1 though:
Duh! I'm subbed to both, and sort them to a common mailbox, sorry.
Did you perhaps use a non - standard yum-conf ?
I put my repo list back in place after the 2.1.3 install overwrote it.
recently YUM has gone through some changes and in order for a mirror
to be useful, it must change the structure a little. One is the
addition of the repomd.xml (I guess that is the repository
maintenance data?) anyway the only mirror usable right now is:
I went after 2.1.3 because of so many messages about 2.1.2 being
fubar, and my own FC2 2.0.7 had quit working, always exiting with a
library not available to upgrade samba. So samba is half busted
here, I can mount my old 7.3 firewalls drives, but the firewall
cannot mount my drives, something about the security model changing.
As this was quite some time back, I haven't been able to use the yum
util to keep the system up2date in a couple of months.
So what version of yum should I have installed and *working* on an FC2
system?
[development]
name=Fedora Core $releasever - Development Tree
baseurl=http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/deve
lopment/$basearch/
Which is the wrong branch for me, my bad. And I should seperate these
lists into their own folder, but kmails folder list is more than
screen high now.
