i hjave been having problems with urpmi not adding/updating sources so i uninstalled urpmi and gurpmi and rpmdrake, deleted /var/lib/urpmi and /var/cache/urpmi and /etc/urpmi and reinstalled urpmi, gurpmi and rpmdrake and ran - as root- : # urpmi.addmedia localcooker file://mandrake/cooker/
the result of which was as follows: ---snip----- /mandrake/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS2/ziptool-1.3-6mdk.i586.rpm /mandrake/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS2/zsnes-1.337-3mdk.i586.rpm /mandrake/cooker/Mandrake/RPMS2/zssh-1.5a-1mdk.i586.rpm choosing compression method with "gzip -4" for archive /var/cache/urpmi/partial/hdlist.localcooker.cz real archive size of /var/cache/urpmi/partial/hdlist.localcooker.cz is 19880728 reading hdlist file [/var/lib/urpmi/hdlist.localcooker.cz] keeping only files referenced in provides reading hdlist file [/var/lib/urpmi/hdlist.localcooker.cz] built hdlist synthesis file for medium "localcooker" found 3424 headers in cache removing 3424 obsolete headers in cache write config file [/etc/urpmi/urpmi.cfg] [root@mycroft RPMS]# as you can see the 'removing obsolete headers' means that urpmi has 'forgotten about all the rpms it has just added to its list as the following command shows: [root@mycroft RPMS]# urpmi zssh no package named zssh [root@mycroft RPMS]# can someone please help me sort this out as urpmi and rpmdrake are currently unusable for me bascule
