Run this as root
Code:
yum clean all Code:
yum -v repolist |
Thank you loads.
It's working properly. You know what? this problem cost me 20k :-( I regret for not posting the problem before. Anyways, I still don't understand the problem. Code:
[root@localhost arunkumar]# yum -v repolist |
THERE ARE NO DOWNLOADS FOR FEDORA 8
and "Loading "priorities" plugin " that plugin is TRYING to find things if you MUST stay with Fedora 8 UNINSTALL yum it is 99% useless on fedora 8 and BUILD ALL CODE from the source code. " |
Ok. I remove yum. I cleaned yum yesterday and it started functioning normal. But today, it's again looking for things. I am removing yum.
Code:
[root@localhost arunkumar]# yum remove yum |

I'm only saying this because building from source isn't the easiest thing in the world, especially for a "new guy". Upgrading or reinstalling the current distro is the best thing to do, but I dont see uninstalling YUM as a good thing. |
I will upgrade my distro soon. If I have to be using fedora, is it mandatory that I upgrade it once in six months? I need a distro with which I can be comfortable for 1 year. Any suggestions?
And I uninstalled yum using rpm --nodeps -e <yum> .. I couldn't remove it without using nodeps. There were programs that used yum :-( |

Switch to CentOS. It is part of the same family of linux but is much more stable and you won't have to learn the ins and outs of a new distro. It's release cycle is the same as RedHat Enterprise Linux.

Thank you.. :-)
