Guest mahiles Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Today when I tried using urpmi I recieved the following "You may want to update your urpmi database". How do I do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtweidmann Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Or open up the software installer right click in right hand plane and select update sources. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mahiles Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 Thanks :) How often do I need to update? Or perhaps a better question would be to ask how often you update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 I'd say once or twice a week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmpatrick Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 You can also do it from the command line with # urpmi.update -a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtweidmann Posted August 7, 2003 Report Share Posted August 7, 2003 I tend to do every time I use the software installed, but thats because I don't use it very often. Theres no need to update if your not planning on using urpmi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphitus Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 I tend to do every time I use the software installed, but thats because I don't use it very often. Theres no need to update if your not planning on using urpmi. Or rpmdrake, all the urpmi sources appear in rpmdrake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
