similar to: Update ?

CentOS uses the yum dependency solver for doing updates and not the RHN (normal) up2date mechanism. That is functionality built into up2date. Due to this difference, there is a problem with the Seamonkey upgrade to replace Mozilla using up2date on CentOS-4, because it does not see Seamonkey as obsoleting Mozilla. (This is a problem with the yum depsolver that is included in up2date). Due to

Hi this is technically a RHEL4 question but i hope it can be answered here... Does RHEL4 do yum OK ? I kix a lot of boxes and it would be great to run the update after the build automajically rather than running through the up2date registration and using that method. I would also rather not pay lots for satellite server. If i setup my own RHEL repo can i use yum against this? Or any other

List, Being pretty new to CentOS and such, can someone answer a couple of questions about yum and up2date? I think I got the basic info, but I'm a bit confused about what does what. I configured yum to use the dag repo (I think) but now and then, I get the red circle from up2date stuff on the upper menubar. I have been using the up2date function to grab the latest bits when

Which is better? Why? I know yum is the official update mechanism here and in Fedora Core, but that doesn't make yum better than up2date any more than Windows NT was better than OS/2. Let's try to keep the discussion objective:-) I'm asking, hoping for some insights into why RH might (apparently) be moving to yum in preference to up2date (yum is now used within Anaconda). Other

Hi all, I want to use UP2DATE to alert me to updates that are available but still use yum to make the update. Up2date alerts me and i see what is available and then update with yum. Up2date icon still shows updates are available. How can I get up2date to know that the system has been updated? Thank you. -- Regards Robert Smile... it increases your face value! Linux User #296285

1. There are updates to CentOS-4Beta for the i386 and x86_64 arches. The following RPMS have been changed: a. createrepo-0.4.2-1.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. b. yum-2.1.13-1.c4.noarch.rpm - This is an update from the upstream maintainer. c. firefox-1.0-6.centos4.3.i386.rpm - The original build did not strip the library files of unnecessary symbols, causing

Hi all. I have a simple question: CentOS relies mostly on "yum" to keep systems up to date, although I understand that like on RHEL, "up2date" is also available. On my system I've run both KDE and GNOME as Graphical Desktops under X (though I presently run GNOME), and I've noticed that there is an applet called "CentOS Network Alert Icon" (from the

I am working on some initial testing of puppet and noticed that when using the package type, I see this in my client logs (from different runs): warning: Found multiple default providers for package: up2date, yum; using up2date warning: Found multiple default providers for package: yum, up2date; using yum This is on a CentOS 4.4 client with puppet-0.22.0-1.el4 (from dlutter repo).

Hi, I am using this document along with the following links to try and assemble a GFS set of mahcines: 1. Log on as the root user. 2.

For guests registered with Red Hat Network, this patch allows for the conversion process to use RHN to download appropriate kernel package and its dependencies. We use yum on RHEL-5, up2date libraries on RHEL-4. We install matching kernel version whenever possible, latest available kernel version otherwise. _discover_kernel routine has been extended to return version-release of the default

All, There are 3 bugfix updates for CentOS-4 (RC1). 1. mod_perl needed to be recompiled after the RH errata for perl was incorporated, but it was not flagged by the perl update. ( https://bugzilla.caosity.org/show_bug.cgi?id=803 ) (thanks Joshua Hirsh) 2. httpd identified itself as Apache/2.0.52 (Red Hat) Server instead of CentOS ( https://bugzilla.caosity.org/show_bug.cgi?id=806 ) (thanks

If so, how do you configure the up2date client that comes with CentOS to look at the local yum mirror? Conversely, how do you disable the CentOS Network Alert Notification Tool so that users won't see the "throbbing red circle" and be tempted to launch the up2date client? Thanks, Alfred

Hello, Does anybody knows a way to keep updated mixed repositories without mixing them ? For Example i have 3 repos in my desktop centos system , Centos repos handled by up2date Dag repo handled by apt and Karan repo handled by yum. I need packages from each repo but i don't want the secondary repos to mess my system so i never update with these repos. is there a way each tool (up2date,

I installed RHEL ES 4.0 on a new server because I had the disks. The problem is that the new server does not have a RedHat network subscription and can't use Up2date to keep itself current. We set up a script that just runs apt once a week, but I am curious whether there is some way of changing the box into a CentOS machine and using your Up2Date to get updates from one of the mirrors. I

Outward dialing is a no brainer. VoipJet is the best outbound call provider I have come across. Period. It always works for me and the call quality is always very very good.
