Apart from manually editing the /etc/yum.repos.d/*.repo file to enable or disable a repo, is there a way you can specify which of the enabled repo to use?
Suppose I have repo1, repo2 and repo3 and all of them are enabled. Now, when using the yum update command, can I specify only to install updated packages in repo1?
i'm attempting to know and understand fedora more and i will spend probably the next month pouring through all the forums and documents to answer more of my own questions. but there's quite a bit here, so i'd thought i'd ask some noob questions to get me started a little.
ive installed fedora 14 64bit and chosen only kde as the desktop. i selected an extra 2 repos besides the default, fedora 14 -x86_64 and fedora 14-x86_64 -updates. i believe this kernel is installed: 2.6.35.11-83
1. i can only see the 2 extra repo's as being "checked" in kpackagekit, shouldn't i see the default repo also ?
2. i dont have an applet in the system tray indicating the system is up to date, does fedora have this by default ? also after a clean install i ran yum check-update and yum update but the message sayes: "no packages marked for update". i'm not sure if the system is auto-updated during install or not, but with other distros iv tried there is always atleast a few updates needing to be done after install.
3. is kpackagekit the fedora gui package manager ? i dont see any others.
4. i want to upgrade to nvidia drivers, but i think i am missing a non-free repo or something. when i enter: yum install kmod-nvidia xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.i686 xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-libs.x86_64 i get messages stating "no package" i get the same message with yum install nvidia-settings.i also tried this: LANG=C yum --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree info akmod-nvidia but it sayes repo not found.
Will KDE4.4 eventually move into the 11.2 updates or do I have to add the KDE Factory repo to get this update?

If I disable the repo-non-oss repository the update works fine. The URL I have for the repo-non-oss repository is:
Index of /distribution/11.0/repo/non-oss
This has been going on for over a week. Do I need to use a different URL for the non-oss repository? I live in New York, United States.
I wasn't paying proper attention when adding a repo to yast and need to find the file were the info is saved to delete this. The problem is that whenever i use yast it comes up with an error code saying that it can't find the data for the 'problem' repo. Have tried zypper rm but that comes up with a similar error advising that the data is in a format that was not expected. My thinking is to track the file were the yast repo source details are saved, delete this and then just add the repos that i use back.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using Fedora 13 and I have one program (wine) that I need to start grabbing for the updates-testing repo instead of the default repositories in order to get newer versions. I think I can figure out how to add that repository, but I need to know if there are any others I need to disable or any other changes I need to make to my system so that I don't confuse my set up with conflicting updates.
Also, is there anything special I need to do to be sure that only that one program is grabbed from the testing repo when I run regular updates?
I've always used the latest k3b from the kde repo, however it's no longer in the x86_64 repo, anyone know where else I can get it from?
View 4 Replies View RelatedThe only thing is that rpm.hozac.com wasn't responding so I got my new kernel from a mirror site. However the mirror doesn't know anything about the GPG key. On the instructions page it said that rpm.hozac.com is "often unavailable" and gives an alternative location for the kernel download. But it doesn't say what to do about the GPG key! And I can't load the new kernel without the key.So, what do I do? (Apart from wait until the repository comes back online!)

What is the official status of Firefox 3.6 in openSUSE? I've been hearing a lot about a critical security error and that it might also be a FUD, but I haven't heard about any progress. I'm just wondering who could be taking a look or who is in charge of the openSUSE repo that will have it and how is the progress in uploading FF 3.6?
