Guest mandrake123 Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 When i use urpmi to download and install packages, do the rpms get placed in a particular folder somewhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cannonfodder Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 Try using the locate command to look for anything endiing with .rpm locate *.rpm You should be able to find the RPM's in that fashion.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 No, urpmi only downloads and installs unless the --noclean option is given. Then b4, running urpmi again (I'd do it immediately) move them out of /var/cache/urpmi/rpms to your own dir. See man urpmi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted December 1, 2002 Report Share Posted December 1, 2002 This is on the other board, but for those that don't frequent the other, it seems that the --noclean option for urpmi (ML9.0 urpmi-4.0-20mdk) isn't working, and the rpms are getting deleted anyway :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mandrake123 Posted December 6, 2002 Report Share Posted December 6, 2002 Anyone know of a fix or workaround to keep those rpm's on my hard drive? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvc Posted December 7, 2002 Report Share Posted December 7, 2002 I got one of those "bad signature...do you still want to install" last night, and I guess by the time I saw it, it timed out, and was at a prompt. The output right above was that it saved the rpm in /var/cache/urpmi/rpms. I went there and sure enough, it was there. In this case, I guess you could copy it.
