mousematt Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 Is there anyway to stop URPMI from deleting the packages it downloads after it installs them? I have three PCs, an iBook and finite bandwidth. Is there a way I can cache the rpms I download throw URPMI? If I could, I could then just copy them onto the other machine and rpm -Uvh *rpm. :D Has anyone done this? I know you can do it with APT and Red Carpet. It must be possible with URPMI. How do I do it? Thankyou in advance everyone... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinynorman Posted May 30, 2004 Report Share Posted May 30, 2004 urpmi option - --noclean Do not remove any packages from the cache in directory /var/cache/urpmi/rpms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousematt Posted May 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2004 Thankyou for the info. I simply didn't pick it in the URPMI options list. I blame my poor eyesight and the fact I am preparing for one too many exams. EIther way, thanks for the help. I like it when people answer stupid questions with limited sarcasm... Thanks :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
