Guest Cezaro Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Hi all. I'm updating my box, from GUI, and want to know where Rpmdrake saves the RPM's it is downloading. I did a search by typing: "find / name_of_RPMmdk.rpm" (without the quotes), without results. The GUI application Find Files is not good at all, it just not work (at least for me). Could it be that Mandrake erases the files after install them? Another question would be: Is Rpmdrake a frontend for urpmi? I guess it is, but I want to be sure. Any help would be appreciated.

DragonMage Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 By default, urpmi and its graphical front end rpmdrake will erase the file after updating. If you use urpmi --noclean option, the files will be located in /var/cache/urpmi/rpms/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cezaro Posted November 6, 2004 Report Share Posted November 6, 2004 Thank you DragonMage, I'm seeing it right now, downloading the packages (in /var/cache/urpmi/partial). From now on, I will use urpmi --noclean every time I want to keep the package I'm downloading. Thank you again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
