update redhat 8.0 rpm packets manually?
i want to update my redhat 8.0 without up2date. i could install some packets with "rpm -Fvh *.rpm" but i cannot update "glibc" and some other packets. i also tried "rpm -Uvh *.rpm" i always got some errors about depencies and conflicts.
how can i update these packets without up2date? thnx for your replies.. |
If you want to do it manually, you'll have to download every package glibc depends on and install them. You'll also have to remove any conflicting packages, or update those, too.
If you want some help, you can use apt... << ayo.freshrpms.net >>. It's a package managing program. It looks to a number of public servers for packages, and will satisfy any dependencies. |
Here is my 2 cents on the best way to do manual updates.
First go to updates.redhat.com and find the directory that contains all the rpms Then run wget to grab them all (assuming you have a decent internet connection). The go to that directory and run "rpm -Fvh *.rpm" if you get some wierd message about package conflicts, you can overwrite that with "rpm -Fvh --force *.rpm" There are some good tools to help out with this. i like red-carpet. |
