yum vs. rpm to install occasional products
I recently installed Oracle-XE using yum --nogpgcheck localinstall
oracle...rpm. No problem except that I screwed up the configuration. My
coworker told me that I should use rpm(8) because the installation
manual specified it rather than yum(8). My question is that is there any
specific advantage using yum(8) over rpm(8).
