The main difficulty in enabling that is making sure that puppet doesn''t run ''yum groupinstall'' (or ''yum groupupdate'') on every run. To avoid that,

Hi all, I have a question related to yum groupinstall. I just tried a: yum groupinstall "MySQL Database" I expected that I would end up with a MySQL Database server, but it installed a bunch of .rpms *except* mysql-server. No big deal, I'm just curious if it was intended this way or not, that's all. Thank you and, Have a nice evening everyone, Alex

Folks In Centos 6 (updated as of last night), the command yum groupinfo Desktop shows the package "rhn-setup-info" as one of its default packages, yet it appears that the package does not exist. Is this an inconsistency in the YUM data? or what? Thanks David Kurn

Gentlemen, I have a question regarding yum groupinstall vs just using yum install. I have been reading tutorials online (for example how to run a Centos LAMP). Most of the tutorials have examples to install httpd, mysql, etc using yum install httpd.... The reason for this e-mail is that I noticed in yum grouplist that there is an option to install Web Server, MySQL database server, etc.

Hi, Is there a difference between 'yum groupinstall' and 'yum group install'? As far as I can tell, # yum groupinstall "X Window System" and # yum group install "X Window System" get me the same result. Just curious.

I?ve got a CentOS 7 VM here that was installed with one of the CLI-only presets. To answer a question in another thread here, I wanted to install a GNOME desktop environment in it, so I went searching and found the standard instructions for doing that. The problem is that rebooting the VM gives me a black screen after it finishes the text booting parts. There?s an X cursor, and wiggling the

I want to install Xfce on a ClearOS server. They have not defined any desktop groups (actually no groups other than minimal). But lots of Xfce rpms are in their repos. How can I see what rpms Centos would install with a 'yum group install'? Then I get to install vnc server and set up the client right... thanks

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

I did a minimal install and then with yum groupinstall, installed http, ftp and samba servers. However the gui server settings are not displayed for these servers. Is there a package that I need to install or do I need to change a setting(s) in a file? In reading "man yum" I did not see a way to find out what rpm's are installed with each group, or maybe I just did not

yum grouplist \*office\* returns Installed Groups: Office Suite and Productivity But the *only* way to see what's in the group is yum groupinfo \*office\* With or without quotes around Office Suite and Productivity, it refuses to admit that any such thing's installed. mark

Hi, One nice thing I have with Debian is the possibility to have a really stripped-down install of things. Let's take an example. I want a cholesterol-free install of GNOME, I 'apt-get install gnome-core' which gives me the bare working minimum of GNOME as a starting point, and then I install what I really need. The same thing applies for KDE, with 'apt-get install
