similar to: rsync 5.1 base repo question

Hi together, after I read "very often" without even a tiny bit of a contradiction, I start to have the feeling I have a basic misunderstanding of rsync. Assume one want to get a list of files which would have been transfered by rsync if rsync was requested to sync directories X and Y and one does <code> X=`mktemp` echo "abc" > $X/1 echo "abc1" > $X/2

Last night my rsync got some 'new' files for the base repo and new repodata. This morning, I set a server to upgrade from 5 to 5.1 by setting it to access my local base and updates repos. I got the following error: Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages. Please wait. ---> Downloading header for openssh-clients to pack into transaction set.

Hi, I use this command. But it also shows the files that are the same. Is there an option that can be specified so that only the differences are printed? Thanks. rsync -avun --delete src dir -- Regards, Peng

I have performed the 5.1 update via the 5 repo on a couple of systems. I then went to switch these systems to my new local repo using ther $releasever variable. It still has the value of 5, not 5.1 Where is this set? Why was it not changed to 5.1? On the one clean install from the 5.1 isos, $releasever is at 5.1 I think.

This is easy with Fedora, as the various 'common' repos are listed and all I have to do is change the URL.... Anyway, I am doing a netinstall of Centos 6.3 i386 from my local repo. I also have the updates repo. How can I add the updates repo so that I get it up to snuff right away (like I have been doing with Fedora for quite some time)? thanks.

It is listed as a known issue, but I have a lot of 256Mb systems where I have used the graphic installer.... OUCH! And when this is fixed (I really hope), it will mean some new ISOs to download?

Hi, When using --max-delete=NUM, NUM + 1 files get deleted. Test it by doing this: # mkdir src # mkdir dest # cd src # touch 1 2 3 4 5 # cd .. # rsync -avu src/ dest # cd src # rm 1 2 # cd .. ( Here i try to sync src and dest, but only delete one file from dest at the time. This would prevent an accidental rm in src from propagating to dest. ) # rsync --delete -avun --max-delete=1 src/ dest

Hi all, Sorry for the bad subject. I'd like to do two things. - Know when a RPM which is currently in only one repository pops up in a different repository. E.g. RPM going from epel-testing to epel. - Get notified when a RPM pops up in a repository. E.g. waiting for an RPM to appear. I know that this is quite easy to find out manually. But did anyone build a script or something else to do

I want to install TinyCA2 on my Centos5 setup. I had a real learning experience the last time around (last year, July) and in the end, I got the repo down from Dag's site and was cool. Now I am on Centos 5 and no TinyCA2. Can I just download the EL4 rpm from: http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el4/en/i386/dag/repodata/repoview/tinyca2-0-0.7.5-2.el4.rf.html and do a yum localinstall ? Or do I have

Hi all, I have a little trouble with mrepo: yum groups doesn't seem to be setup correctly; if I do "yum grouplist" it only gives me Installed Groups: Yum Utilities Available Groups: FreeNX and NX XFCE-4.4 Horde Did I forget something on the mrepo.conf or similar? tia Lorenzo Quatrini

hey guys.. I'm continually seeing the following error although I've got the latest/greatest yum RPM from various CentOS 5.2 repos (mirrors.kernel.org most recently). is there possibly something wrong with the RPM's checksum somewhere upstream? note: I've already regenerated our own mrepo server various times and refreshed the metadata on my yum clients as well. ******* ~# yum

Hi We use mrepo to keep a local repository. I downloaded the CentOS6.1 iso and used that as the base. We also have the CR repo added. I was expecting this change to cause no issues but the following packages have version issues between the base 6.1 and the CR repo:- base version CR version dbus-libs-1.2.24-4.el6_0.x86_64 dbus-libs-1.2.24-5.el6_1.x86_64

This is perplexing. on a Centos 5.1 box that I am trying to upgrade, I keep getting: [Errno 4] IOError: <urlopen error unknown url type: media> from my local repo. I did a blank system install via http from this server with no problem. For instance, if I limit myself to: yum upgrade yum I get: Loading "priorities" plugin Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up

I just did a manual resync of my local update repo from mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5.1/updates/i386/ I got a new version of Thunderbird, but not a new set of files in the repodata directory. Thus when I did a yum update against my local repo, I did not get the new version of Thunderbird. I will note that the files on my local repo are dated Dec 20th and the ones on mirrors are dated Dec

I haven't run any updates on my systems recently, but now I'm trying to get them up to date again. When I run a yum update, I get this error: Error: Missing Dependency: initscripts >= 7.93.26.EL-1 is needed by package httpd I did a Google search, but I didn't find anything relating directly to CentOS or RHEL and there was no fix suggested. If it makes a difference, I am running

I want to set up a server that will do network installs of CentOS, perhaps through NFS. Ideally, I'd put a CentOS in the CD of the target computer, I boot it off of that CD, and then the rest is done over my network and with the server. Has anyone done that and published it? Where can I find docs? === Al
