Here is the content of /home/wacojohn/.config/yumex/yumex.config: Code:
[yumex] EDIT: and here is output from terminal command: Code:
[wacojohn@raspi ~]$ yumex -n |
Yum config file is generally located in /etc you can open it using vim, gedit, nano etc
Code:
vim /etc/yum.conf Code:

I can provide quotes on the 5 files in /etc/yum.repos.d/ at your request. /var/cache/yum involves a pretty extensive tree structure .. lots of folders/levels/files. I found a repomd.xml file in /var/cache/yum/armhfp/18/pidora/ If you want to see it, I will provide its content. Quote:

I get a Wiki page at: http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/inde...oving_Software Quote:
I REALLY appreciate your help. I just wanted to update a new installation of Pidora ... yes brand new install. |
Ok, your yum.conf looks alright run
Code:
yum clean all Again Code:
yum grouplist I did find some repos at http://downloads.raspberrypi.org/pid...tes/18/armhfp/ and http://pidora.proximity.on.ca/pidora...tes/18/armhfp/ Post the contents of all the files present in your yum.repos.d so i can have a look at it but judging by the yum output the problem is non-availability of valid download locations i think. Code:
/var/cache/yum Code:
packages/ Quote:

EDIT: Just found this thread at another forum ... looks like the same situation. Would you take a look at it, please ... and tell me what you think? http://www.raspberrypi.org/phpBB3/vi...0e6bae#p375193 |

http://pidora.proximity.on.ca/pidora/updates/18/ So far you can just disable "updates" : enabled=0 .. in /etc/yum.repos.d/<file.repo> ( May be check at a later time, if the folder "repodata/" appears again .. http://pidora.proximity.on.ca/pidora/updates/18/ ) - |

Click the link to check for the presence of "repodata" : If repodata for updates ever appears again, then you can do # yum update |

gpgcheck=0 The repo URLs also have all the packages available for download so a user may download them manually without using yum or other package managers. See http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfr...ing/x86_64/os/ Again in your case the URLs which your yum searches for updates currently have no listed updates that's why you are getting those errors, you can check them from time to time from your browser to see if any new updates have been published or not. Also yum will not automatically update your packages you can either do it via command line Code:
yum update <packagename> |
well, .. between knudfl's input (the man is obviously a genius) and this latest genius gem ... I think I understand. Thank you both. One thing though:
When I run Yum Extender, it tries to get updates .... when it fails, it closes. So that is because there aren't any ... I get that. But Yum Extender is supposed to also do other things ... right? Like offer different packages to install as desired ... or UNinstall if no longer desired ... much like Synaptic Package Manager in Debian. Right? At the moment, it appears to default to UPDATES and when that errs, it closes. So how do I get it to ... oh, ... offer Bleachbit (for example) ... or a printer package, or, or, or? I just now clicked on http://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfr...ing/x86_64/os/ and this is what I got (from OPEN DNS on a WINDOWS machine): Quote:
Thank you again. |
