similar to: repodata out of sync for centos6-updates

Yesterday I pulled down a major update to OpenOffice. But no updates to repodata. I waited a day to see if there was some reason for the lag (like more rpms needed to complete the set), but still today, no repodata to pull down (my rsync looks for more recent file dates). Help?

The repodata directory on all 6.5 isos that I have sampled have an issue where the file names don't have extensions resulting in a yum repo error on installation just after disk partitioning. This error prompts you with the choice between either allowing you choose another repo or to exit the installer. I remedied this issue with the following: [root at testserv /root/test/centos]$ find

I'm seeing the updates for 5.4 roll out (per Karanbir's tweet on October 26), but there haven't been any updates to the repodata, thus, yum isn't seeing the updates. Is this on purpose? Maybe I've just not noticed this before, if this is standard update roll-out procedure. Thanks, Kevin

Originally posted as "Problem installing Centos 6.4/6.5 from USB stick seen as HDD by BIOS" Further testing seems to indicate there is some odd issue with the file names in the repodata directory. During installation, after the partitioning stage, anaconda logs an error trying to access the file

Johnny (& other CentOS folks), Am I being fooled by some proxies between me and centos (and all the centos mirrors, which what I normally use), or has the repodata for CentOS 5.9 updates not been updated since 03-Jun-2013 12:08? I was under the impression that the repodata on the main centos servers was updated about the same time as any CentOS-announce message going out, unless I also see a

Hi folks, I've noted that the CentOS 8 debuginfo repo lacks the repodata/ directory: http://debuginfo.centos.org/8/x86_64/ Did the maintainers forget to upload it? It does have all the .rpm files under the Packages/ sub-directory though: http://debuginfo.centos.org/8/x86_64/Packages/ And no repodata/ there either. Also, I've noted the 8-stream/ directory which is empty. Is it

Hello, we would like to sync all files from http://oirase.annexia.org/virt-p2v/ with Foreman/Katello. Is it possible to provide "repodata" for this public directory? Without it we can not sync it. Greets, Denis

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 don't know if it's useful to report this: (& who should I report it to?) # yum update [...] * base: mirrors.ircam.fr * extras: mirrors.ircam.fr * fasttrack: mirror.ovh.net * remi-ff: rpms.famillecollet.com * updates: centosq3.centos.org base | 3.7 kB 00:00 cr | 2.9 kB 00:00 extras | 3.4 kB 00:00 fasttrack | 3.4 kB 00:00 Not using downloaded repomd.xml
