dag.repo overwritten 1 year 11 weeks ago

I accidentally overwrote dag.repo by trying to add this

[dag] name=DAG RPM Repository baseurl=http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el$releasever/en/$basearch/dag gpgcheck=1 enabled=1

does anyone have the backup file for dag.repo which is found in /etc/yum.repos.d for centOS 5.8 or where can I download it?

rhel 6 yum 45 weeks 1 day ago

Hello,

I am trying to add a .repo to /etc/yum.repos.d for rhel 6 64 bit, but I can't seem to find a good yum url.

This is on a brand new fedora 12 install. I did some searching, but none of the answers I found cured the problem.

[root@localhost ~]# yum update networkmanager Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again

Here is my hosts file:

How can I see a list of flags/options used to configure and compile a certain package in yum, without having to install it first? Say apache, for example.

$ yum list available httpd Available Packages httpd.x86_64 2.2.15-15.el6.centos.1 base

I'm running CentOS 6.3.

installing dkms fails to work 1 year 18 weeks ago

I would like to install dkms to install the VBGuessAdditions but

yum install dkms

always results in an error

loaded pluggins: fastestmirror, refresh-packagekit, security Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=6&arch=x86_64&repo=os error was 14: PYCURL ERROR 6 - "Could not resoltve host 'mirrorlist.centos.

I have a situation where the stock repo files that should exist in /etc/yum.repos.d/ (like centos-base.repo) are not present. I need to get them installed. I am sure this is simple, but after hours of searching, it seems I am not googling it correctly.

Basically I have a server with custom repos that are useless to me. I need epel, and epel needs centos-base.repo.
