I have a rather (I expect) basic question about the mechanics of package installation.
If it makes any difference to the answer, I am currently using yum under Fedora and/or CentOS, although I am thinking of at least trying out smart thanks to Axel's often urging on this list. I have a client-server package that I install on several systems (MythTV, if you care) and they *should* be running the same exact build to function properly, however... Typically, they don't all get done at one time and on occasion they end up with different builds. My question is: How do I go about updating later systems with the same .rpm that I used on earlier systems? Is the .rpm that has been installed on system A physically present there as a single file that could easily be moved (e.g. with scp) to system B and then locally referenced in the yum invocation (or better, referenced remotely from A) on B? If so, where should I expect to find the .rpm and how do I tell yum to install /the/package/at/this/location/existing.rpm? TIA Craig. _______________________________________________ atrpms-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.atrpms.net/mailman/listinfo/atrpms-users
