Gul Dukat Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 As I was very curious, I ve installed FC6 Test-1. So far so good. But I was wondering, as to how I should set up yum. I mean, I dont think it would be wise to set up yum using the FC5 repos. Would it? To speak in MDV-terms, isnt there a way to add cooker-like repos?

mtriley98 Posted June 23, 2006 Report Share Posted June 23, 2006 Fedora's test = Mandriva's cooker I've been so intrigued by yum-ex and smart gui that I haven't configured yum from a terminal for some time. Here is a link to fedora 5.90 repo http://redhat.secsup.org/fedora/core/test/...os/Fedora/RPMS/ I hope this helps some but I'll try to help more when I have more time. gotago cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, you don't need to for development and extras-development If your talking third party like fresh/dries repositorys then instead of $releasever you would use 5, however keep in mind now that some apps lib's wont be in sink with what is on rawhide, so you will do some manual stuff ;) like pull down the 3rd party repo's SRC.rpm's and rpmbuild --rebuild them most of the time will fix that situation. It is manual, but you are running a beta OS :) I do it all the time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gul Dukat Posted June 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Thanks for the reply jlc. Was hoping you would reply. B) So correct me if I wrong. I could make use of a FC5 yum-configuration, including livna, and deal with dependecies problems manually? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlc Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 Yep, if you have problems with it, just let me know. If it takes me awhile to reply, I'm getting killed at work right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
