Installing .rpm with YUM
 
I was just wondering if you setup a yum repo in /etc/yum.repos.d would you be able to install any rpm file with yum?

Though YUM would download the packages in the format of the distribution it is set on and if set on RH based it would download rpm files finally, but I do not see any option with yum where you can install rpm packages.
To install rpm files, rpm command is available.

yum --nogpgcheck localinstall package.rpm

I never thought this can be done. Thanks for that.
