i think i broke yum...


any way to get it back to 100% default? i've tried reverting yum.conf to no avail.

[root@localhost m0nk3y]# yum install flashplayer
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
core [1/5]
core 100% |=========================| 1.1 kB 00:00
nr-production [2/5]
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: nr-production
Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: nr-production
[root@localhost m0nk3y]#

help? im not sure if flashplayer is a good example, but all legitimate programs give me the same message.

-edit- i'm using fc5 i386 (32bit)

It looks like you have a repo called [nr-production] that has an invalid value for baseurl or, more likely, baseurl is simply missing. I'm not sure about FC5, but it has probably carried on the FC4 configuration with split yum.conf entries. In other words, /etc/yum.conf has the [main] section, and then there are repos listed in /etc/yum.repos.d/ You might have a repo /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-nr-production, or [nr-production] listed in one of the others.

Let us know if that doesn't point you in the right direction.
