Hi All, I'm trying to use yum with the downloadonly option to collect a set of packages including dependencies. I noticed that even on CentOS 6 the downloadonly option is currently a default feature of the core of yum itself, which is nice. However something strange occurs when one of the repositories to download from is a local repository, like:...

Googling for this feature, I saw reports from the yum developer that it wasn't yet implemented. This was in mailing list posts from a year or more ago. Did it ever make it into the yum code? I want to start downloading the updates for a server going from 5.0 to 5.1 and then do the actual installation once I'm on site. I don't want to have to wait around while there for the

How does one do this? Reading through the man pages for yum it doesn't look like its possible? I could use rpm, but I was hoping to pull down deps through yum automagically. Thanks! jlc

Can I just download an rpm from a repo without installing it? I don't see anything like yum download or yum install --downonly

Hi folks, I have a production server that's currently running 5.0 with all updates. What's the easiest, or perhaps best way to upgrade it to 5.1, with minimal down time? The downtime is critical, so I need to have it be a short as possible. I can live with an hour or two, but larger is going to be a pain. Suggestions? -- W | It's not a bug - it's an undocumented

Dear all, Wouldn't it be helpful if the install.views install.packages update.packages had a "downloadonly=TRUE" flag which would allow us to download the packages and install them later (or put them in a USB stick and take them for installation on anothe PC).
