Rpmforge ...
Hi forum,
how can I make rpmforge, epel, rpmfusion, ... and such nice things available for RHEL and how can I check whether it is available or not ? Kind regards eggerola |
Please show the output from the command :
ls /etc/yum.repos.d/ And also tell if you have Redhat support. Redhat EL is not free, and you will have to pay to set up a Redhat.repo . Without it, you can't use any other repo's. But you can use the free copy of Redhat EL = CentOS 5.4 . http://www.centos.org/ ..... |
Howto make rpmforge available and how to check it.
Hi,
the output is : ls /etc/yum.repos.d/ adobe-linux-i386.repo epel-testing.repo rhel-debuginfo.repo rpmfusion-free-updates.repo rpmfusion-nonfree-updates.repo epel.repo mirrors-rpmforge rpmforge.repo rpmfusion-free-updates-testing.repo rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing.repo [root@logicproPC yum.repos.d]# What does this mean ??? None of these packages can be verified. Neither by yum list .... nor by rpm -q ... . Yes, I have RedHat support. I just installed yum-protectbase. Kind regards eggerola |
'epel.repo', 'rpmforge.repo' etc.
Those are files with a link to a repository, which can supply extra packages. The rpmfusion.repo is incomplete, .. the file rpmfusion.repo seems missing ? But first : Which package(s) do you want to install ? Please do this command : # yum list available > yum.list.available.txt .. which will create a text file in /home/'username'/ .. with all the packages, you can install. The list has a text describing the repo name, so please have a look, to see if rpmforge appears. ..... |

Is rpmforge a repository or a package ???????????????????????????
The command rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/...l5.rf.i386.rpm tells me, that the package rpmforge has already been installed. I want to install mplayer, but first of all, I want to make rpmforge available on my notebook. How can I find out whether it is installed or not ???????????? Regards O.Eggert |
All installed rpms can be checked with
rpm -qa | grep <name> ( or part of name ) rpm -qa | grep rpmforge .. will show that the repo is installed. Creating a new list with all packages and repo names : 1) su 2) yum list all > my.list.text 3) exit .. And after the above is done : grep rpmforge my.list.text .. will list all "rpmforge" packages ..... |
